Why
- Having a one click watchlist button improves the editor experience
- Having a one click add to/remove from watchlist star improves the editor experience
- Reading lists is centered around the reader experience. However it is not a zero sum game. It is possible to improve the reader experience without diminishing the editor experience. Just include both a watchlist button and a readling list button side by side.
What
- To the Vector 2022 skin, add back the watchlist button
- To the Vector 2022 skin, add back the watchlist star
Notes
- picked feature instead of bug report since the team intentionally chose to do this
- was originally filed as T424407: Watchlist button gone from top right bar, but the new Phab user didn't fill out the paperwork right, so that ticket got closed. this ticket is the same thing though.
- additional discussion is occurring at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Readers/Reader_Experience/Reading_lists#Don't_replace_watchlist_menu_icon
