Description (none) 2008-08-19 05:34:28 UTC

Currently, there are, in the user preferences page, the options:
  Add pages I create to my watchlist
  Add pages I edit to my watchlist
  Add pages I move to my watchlist
  Add pages I delete to my watchlist

I think these settings should be configurable per namespace, i.e allow me to automatically add all User talk: pages to my watchlist, but not articles.

Seems feature bloaty. Probably could be done via gadget or userscript. Very simple example:

 addOnloadHook(function() { if(wgNamespaceNumber == 3 && wgAction == 'edit') { document.getElementById('wpWatchthis').checked=true } });

Suggest WONTFIX.

Agree that it's bloaty and better suited by a Gadget. Second the call for WONTFIX.
