As a Watchlist Expiry user, I want the ability to temporarily watch pages with VE, so that I can use the feature via a common editor process.
Resources:
Background: We have currently focused on implementing the watchlist expiry feature for source editing (see T248494). We will now implement this functionality for VisualEditor. Like source editing, the user has seen the drop-down. Note that this work is dependent upon T248514 being completed first.
Acceptance Criteria:
- In VisualEditor, add the following:
- A drop-down to the right of label (inactive by default, before box checked)
- The dropdown has an accessibility label available to screen reader software: "Watchlist time period:" (but no visible label)
- A drop-down to the right of label (inactive by default, before box checked)
- When user checks the box to "Watch this page," the drop-down should become active
- The user should be able to select watch period via drop-down
- The drop-down has the following options:
- Permanently (as default)
- for 1 week
- for 1 month
- for 3 months
- for 6 months
- The drop-down has the following options:
- If the page has already been watched, the behavior should be as follows:
- Drop-down should have days left as pre-selected option at top
- The selection should be written as follows: "X days left" (for example, "10 days left" or "20 days left").
- If the page has already been watched with a selected temporary time period, and the user clicks "Publish" without changing the time period selection, no changes to the watch period should be made.
- The watch period should be saved or updated, if the user makes a new time period selection.
- The watch star should reflect the new watch state and expiry.
