Description Nikola Smolenski 2012-11-02 12:12:51 UTC
I have the need to filter recent changes by various criteria, which is now possible. For example, I would like to filter out edits of titles and descriptions in languages I don't know at all, since I can't really help there. Similarly, sometimes I would like to overview only removal of links to srwiki, since I know the language and the wiki well and could easily help with that.

This could be done by improving Special:Recentchanges or by creating a new special page. Also might be done to the watchlist and Special:Log.

Duplicate of what? fwiw Bug 42289 is still open.

Also this bug has been resolved as fixed, not duplicate.

Please clarify. Thank you!

Reopening as per comment 4. Denny: Please clarify. TIA!
Comment 6 Matthew Flaschen 2013-05-15 05:22:01 UTC
A simple but IMHO useful default would be to show any property change addition or removal (e.g. add "instance of", remove "country of citizenship", etc.), and changes to the label and description in the user's language.

This would be even better with multiple languages (bug 48496).
Comment 7 Daniel Kinzler 2013-06-27 10:31:36 UTC
I don't see an easy way to do this kind of filtering with the database structure we currently have, especially not with paging. It's possible, but not easy, unless i'm missing something.
