[Wikitech-l] New extension: "OnlyRecentRecentChanges"
The extension [1] changes the RC view so that any changed article is only listed *once*. A new *option* on the preferences "Recent changes" tab is added which allows users to have - each change (default) or - only the most recent change per changed page shown in the RC list. Code on GitHub, see [1] (request for MW extension repo is filed on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Git/New_repositories/Requests ) [1] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:OnlyRecentRecentChanges ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

I have the discussion since 2004 when I joined the MediaWiki developer team This Javascript thing you mean does it differently: - all RC versions are sent from the server to the client, which costs the full bandwidth. - and, worse, changed pages are listed at least still once per day when a change happened. My extension shows only one entry per changed pages, and sends really only the last change to the client. ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
