No way to watch a page on wikimediafoundation.org
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

Problem
I used to be able to watch a page (specifically the jobs page). I would do this so when a job was posted on the page, I would get an email, and I could then post the job to social media, or local groups that I am a part of.

Solution
Provide some way to be notified when a page is updated. RSS or email or something else?

There are some built-in RSS feeds for Wordpress.

Nice!

could an RSS feed be created for https://wikimediafoundation.org/about/jobs/ ?

We do not have the ability to create new ones at this time. The existing ones are essentially a convenient byproduct of dynamics pages (created from multiple separate elements). The staff page for example is a dynamic page compromised of the staff profile pages, so there is a RSS feed for it. The job listing page for now is more of a traditional page, so there is no built-in RSS feed for it.
