Description
Watchlist Improvements
- Prototype
Idea
When we add a new watch to our watchlist we could select what type of content are we interested in:
- Content Page Modification
- Page Objects + Settings Modification
- Comments
- Attachments

Variations



Old Proposal
Feedback
- Subscribe button is not an action - it takes you to a RSS page
- visual consistency with the other notification
- Watchlist Livetable: Page-Space, Space-Page order
- Space-Page is more similar to the URL notation
- Page-Space has more relevance for the end user, less spaces added
- 15 lines / page for the Livetable pagination
- not sure there will be so much usage for RSS notifications
- if there are so many pages - complex filtering, grouping are needed
Analysis
- Different naming notations:
- Watch this page
- Watch page: WatchList
- Watch space: Improvements (but this way offers more information )
- Watch this space
- Need a way to add pages/spaces to Watchlist without being on that actually page - Add Watch
- Remove from Watchlist = unwatch - just like in the menu "Unwatch page/space"
- Watchlist for Administrator = My Watchlist - more personal
- Space = All pages in the space
- Mark with * or All
- more criptic, but more easy to spot in a list
- Mark with * or All
- Possibility to subscribe to Watchlist or individual interest pages in a single interface, without the need to go to the specific pages
Other features nice to have
- Unwatch all watched pages with a single click
- Possibility to filter for the latest modified space/page
- Show the last modification date
- Filter by recent
- Statistics with most active pages / spaces
- number of lines added
- number of comments/attachements added
- See modification type: text, comment, attachement
- just like the dashboard - but for specific/interest pages/spaces
- Offer the possibility to enable/disable a page/space watched without deleting it
- good if you want to create specific RSS feeds, containing just parts of your Watchlist
- The ability to create multiple Watchlists: on different topics
- if this would be used on departments: have a Programming Watchlist, a Design Watchlist (i am interested in both)
Proposal
- Empty Watchlist

- Watchlist with items

- Add watch option

- All options active
