Change Details

**User story:** As an editor, I want to view recent edits to specifics sets of pages of interest, so that I can focus my attention on different areas of my Wikimedia project. In the parent ticket, and the various links and other tickets documented therein, users have expressed a desire to be able to have a way to view recent changes to specific sets of pages. This is in contrast to viewing recent edits for all pages on their watchlist - pages might have been watched for different reasons at different times. Ideas on how to solve this problem have included: * tags for each watched page, so that users could filter their watchlist for certain watchlist tags * watchlist categories / multiple watchlists, so that each watchlist is its own tab or 'folder' of pages, which then have their own view in the watchlist We would like to know if one of these approaches (or another approach) is technically feasible. Are there any obvious roadblocks or technical issues that we might foresee? Which of the options which has been discussed seems most feasible? **Past discussions** The following are technical discussions that we could find which have taken place before, that may be a helpful reference: * Meeting notes at E138#1369 for the Watchlist Expiry project contain some discussion of watchlist tags * T124752#1998193 onwards It would likely be beneficial to chat with some of the folks involved in those previous conversations, in addition to the #community-tech team, who developed Watchlist Expiry.

This is in contrast to viewing recent edits for all pages on their watchlist - pages might have been watched for different reasons at different times. The most obvious solution to this problem would be allow users to optionally define and attach 'tags' or 'categories' to each page on their watchlist. A given page would be able to have multiple, or zero, tags. They would then have some kind of filtering system for limiting their Watchlist view to edits on pages which have a certain tag. We would like to know if this is technically feasible to achieve within the 3 months the Moderator Tools team plans to work on Watchlist. Are there any obvious roadblocks or technical issues that we might foresee? Are there limitations, or performance concerns? **Past discussions** The following are technical discussions that we could find which have taken place before, that may be a helpful reference: * Meeting notes at E138#1369 for the Watchlist Expiry project contain some discussion of watchlist tags * T124752#1998193 onwards It would likely be beneficial to chat with some of the folks involved in those previous conversations, in addition to the #community-tech team, who developed Watchlist Expiry.
