When visiting Special:EditWatchlist, you see a flash of a red "Remove pages" button (used when user does not have JS) which is quickly replaced by the three grey buttons (used when you have JS).

| Special:EditWatchlist: Remove destructive styling from removal button | mediawiki/core | master | +3 -4 |
We updated the 'remove' button to be styled as destructive because without JS it immediately removes pages from the watchlist. We could remove the red, because probably more people will be annoyed by the flash than will be annoyed by the lack of visual warning of the immediate removal (considering there's not been any warning before now, that's not too bad, I think).

Change #1259407 merged by jenkins-bot:
[mediawiki/core@master] Special:EditWatchlist: Remove destructive styling from removal button
I see we have removed the red destructive styling from the Remove pages button without JS.
