Both general "Watch" link and "Watch this page" checkbox just under the edit box have shortcut key alt+w.
It would be great if there will be a solution in the near future :) I think, alt-w should be kept for the "Watch"-link. alt-v seems to be available and to be used for the checkbox.
Just another duplicate usage, but only for admins a problem: alt-d is used for the delete-tab and "show changes" at the edit-modus.
Created attachment 2209 [details] Patch for 'w' conflict This patch simply removes the watch/unwatch tab in edit mode. This is probably desirable in any case, and so is normal behavior in non-Monobook-based skins already: clicking the (un)watch button does nothing if you subsequently save the submission form you have open, since it's silently overridden by the status of the checkbox.
Created attachment 2210 [details] Alternative 'w' patch This is an alternative patch that just removes the accesskey from the watch/unwatch tab during editing, rather than removing the tab altogether. So if you press alt-W while editing, it just checks/unchecks the box.
The 'd' collision was fixed eleven months ago in r10460. The shortcut for "show changes" has been 'v' for almost a year.

The shortcut for "show > changes" has been 'v' for almost a year. Correction: it was fixed for *some* languages. Cs, da, de, el, eu, it, ja, mk, nn, pms, and sk are all still using 'd'.
Created attachment 2212 [details] Fix 'd' collision for remaining languages (including ga) Whoops, left out ga.
'w' collision fixed in r16989 (per comment #3). 'd' collision remains.
Reverted r16989, as it made it more or less impossible to watch/unwatch a page that doesn't presently exist without manually mucking about with URLs.
Both collisions fixed in r17118.
[[MediaWiki:tooltip-diff]] has to to changed too, at least for de:
