[Wikipedia-l] Let's do it!

[Mark Christensen]

I agree.  Basically, we need to be able to get rid of some of this clutter
in recent changes.

I'd also like to suggest the possibility that meta.wikipedia changes would
not show up in the recent changes log by default, but that they could be
turned on in your user preferences, and that they should always show up in a
different color to mark them off from real encyclopedia changes.  

In fact, I'd like to also be able set up my recent changes page to exclude
Talk: namespaces, and Wikipdians: namespaces as well as the proposed Meta
namespace.  That way, I could see only the changed articles without any of
the other clutter.   If we did this for everybody by default, I'd also like
to see another special page that only shows the recent changes for the meta,
talk, and wikipedians namespace.

Sounds plausible to me, as long as indeed the namespace has its own
recent
changes page.
