User talk:Blackjack48~mediawikiwiki/GSOC proposal for watchlist improvements

Aaron, please link to your previous coding experience, especially in MediaWiki. http://www.sociotopia.com/wiki/watchlist_unwatch.patch for example. And please come into IRC to discuss your proposal!

 * Interesting proposal. I will admit that I only just skimmed, but I do hope you're able to successfully redesign the watchlist system. Heaven knows it's in need of some TLC and updating. Killiondude (talk) 05:39, 9 April 2012 (UTC)

Some questions
Can a watchlist item only be in one group?

Should other people be able to see and share my watchgroups?

What will be the ongoing maintenance requirements of this sort of feature?
