Semantic Watchlist (a.k.a. SWL) is an extension to Semantic MediaWiki that enables users to watch semantic properties by adding a new watchlist page (Special:SemanticWatchlist) that lists changes to these properties.
The recommended way to install Semantic Watchlist is by using Composer with an entry in MediaWiki's composer.json
.
composer require mediawiki/semantic-watchlist:~1.0
php maintenance/update.php
from your MediaWiki installation directory to create the required database tables.For configuration, see the configuration documentation on MediaWiki.org.
Users can choose to follow one or more watchlist groups, which are administrator defined, and cover a set of properties and a set of pages (category, namespace, or SMW concept). Notification of changes to watched properties is also possible via email.
Find more detailed usage documentation on MediaWiki.org. Recent changes can be found in the release notes.
