Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts/Scripts/Watchfilter

/* This script lets you filter your watchlist by namespace, similar to recent changes.

This script is now mostly obsolete, as similar functionality has been added to MediaWiki. It is no longer actively maintained.

Known bugs:

  • Currently the filter is reset whenever you reload the page or follow the "show last X hours/days" or "show/hide my edits" links. The latter could be fixed fairly easily, but the obvious fix for the former would cause a noticeable slowdown.
  • The script no longer works if "Enhanced Recent Changes" has been enabled, due to changes in the enhanced watchlist page layout since the script was written.
