Description Woojin Kim 2013-08-29 08:10:12 UTC
There are many discussion pages using transclusions (such as RfA or RfCU). Current system cannot watch the threads effectly when the discussion pages uses transcluded threads. Adding cascade-setting will make the watchlist more effective. Best regards.

This refers to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:RfA I assume.
Where exactly would you expect such a setting to be available?
Comment 2 Woojin Kim 2013-08-30 02:19:44 UTC
I meant, cascade-watch feature to be general feature, not limited to some pages on specific wikis. Many discussion sites uses the transcluded threads such as Wikipedia RfA/RfCU, DR at Commons, almost all types of community discussion pages in ko.wp
I'm thinking about configuring Watchlist raw edit interface by adding "[cascade]" to enable cascade-watching. It should not confuses the watchlist system because the page names do not allow "[]" brackets.
