Alas, some of these wretched souls have ended up with rather large watchlists due to my "Watch articles by default" feature, so the 1 hour cutoff on large watchlists threatens their salvation.
I often wondered about the wisdom of that feature. I had it on when it was first introduced, and found that I was accumulating a list of articles in which I had made only minor spelling corrections. If a person really wants to watch an article they should need to make the positive effort of activating it.
I d like the feature that shows how many articles are on the list. My list currently has a humble 116 articles, but I do make a point of weeding out articles that I no longer want to watch.
