This bug was reported on Portuguese Wikipedia, and started yesterday: https://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikip%C3%A9dia:Caf%C3%A9_dos_programadores&oldid=29879266#P.C3.A1ginas_vigiadas_.282.29 1) Go to Portuguese Wikipedia and watch some page, e.g. [[]]; 2) Go to [[pt:Special:Watchlist]] and wait until someone else edit the page (or edit it using another user account/IP) 3) Since this page was changed since our last visit, its name should be displayed like this <td><strong class="mw-watched"><a href="/wiki/Foo" title="Foo">Foo</a></strong>...</td> but it is currently being displayed as <td><a href="/wiki/Foo" title="Foo">Foo</a>...</td> which is very inconvenient. More details: * This happens on ptwiki and on enwiki but not on ptwikibooks; * This happens both using Firefox 12 and Chrome 18; * This happens using the enhanced watchlist as well as the normal watchlist Questions: * Has anyone removed the <strong class="mw-watched">? * Was there any configuration change on these wikis related to watchlists? * If so, why?

Hmm... I think this is the cause: http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/index.php?title=Server_admin_log&action=historysubmit&diff=46262&oldid=46249
Confirmed. Setting $wgShowUpdatedMarker = false, disables the bold text (class="mw-watched") in Watchlist. Reedy, why did you change it? I'm not seeing a benefit on disabling it.
Adding shell keyword since it is just a request to restore the previous behavior by setting $wgShowUpdatedMarker = true for ptwiki (maybe others were affected as well?).

I'm not seeing a benefit on disabling it. https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28026#c20 Oh, and related to that https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#change,6054 It was done as a short term intermediatary step.
Re-enabled
