FAQ: Watching Articles


Q. How do I learn about changes to certain articles of interest to me? Can I be alerted if someone updates an article I wrote?

A. You can follow articles using the watch feature. Access an article of interest and click “Watch.” Doing this adds the page to your "watch list." You can check your watch list by clicking "Special pages" in the left-hand navigation. From the list of links on this page, click "My watchlist."

You can use the Search functionality to find new articles written since your last visit. To do this, enter a keyword into the Search field and click "Go." The search results page will provide a listing of all articles with this word in the article title or body copy. Any or all of these articles can be added to your watch list.
