At Wikimania, I had a great discussion with Brianna
about the sorts of
things we'd like to do to bring watchlists up to date with all the
current use cases.
We'd definitely want to be able to watch for
periods of time, we want
to be able to watch categories, and perhaps shared and multiple
watchlists are ideas worth investigating.
While you're at it :-), I would definitely like some
FlaggedRevs flavour in there, i. e. not have to check the
watchlist every day or collect all the diffs manually, but
have a clean interface for "changes since my last view of
this page". You could either record when the user follows
the link from the watchlist or have a separate button "Okay,
make this the last viewed revision" . I don't know how that
would interact with RevisionDelete as in whether to save the
ID or the timestamp of the last viewed revision.
