Nadja,

I had to guess its functionality (since i couldnt find any documentation), so my guesses might be wrong:
one can list on that "my watchlist"  wikimedia pages, by their titles, i.e. by editing the "my watchlist" and by writing eg:
Wikidata

You may edit it but the real funcionality is just clicking watch/unwatch on the top of pages. In Vector skin (unfortunately this is the default) it is marked with a star similarly to other Web applications such as bookmarks in Firefox. You can't watch either special pages or other wikis from within a wiki.
 

Frankly, I dont see whats the advantage to normal bookmarking. But thanks for the explanations.

But despite this tool I still want to be taken off the mailing list. As I encountered technical problems 
I previously asked to be taken off the mailing list http://article.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.wikidata/134
however I still get emails. Whoever is entitled to do that - could you please take me off this mailing list. Thanks again.

Please visit this page listed in the footer of every mail:

Then scroll to the bottom or search for "To unsubscribe from Wikidata-l, get a password reminder, or change your subscription options enter your subscription email address", and press the button. You will be provided a new password if you already don't have the welcome message (which is always a good idea to store).


I had visited this address  and tried to unsubscribe and encountered problems before I posted my request. Meanwhile I am in contact with Lydia, who told me that there is indeed some strange problem with my login. May be I registered too early. Anyways sorry for spoiling your conversations, I should have contacted Lydia directly but I think she was listed on the subscribe list only later. In some way it is may be good if you know what kind of problems people may encounter when trying to communicate within wikidata.

Or if you are waiting for someone else's help, please be a little more patient and don't write this to every thread. I don't know who is the owner of the list, but the vaste majority of us is not, so there is  no point in repeating the request publicly.
