Extension:WhoIsWatching/ja

The WhoIsWatching extension allows to find out who is watching a particular page, and add others to watchlist for that page.

Rationale
Even though this notion goes against Wikipedia and Wikimedia privacy policy, some wikis may actually like to see which of its users are watching particular pages.
