Hello,
People usually ask me how they can patrol edits that affect their Wikipedia
or their language. The proper way to do so is by using watchlist and
recentchanges (with "Show Wikidata edits" option enabled) in Wikipedias but
sometimes it shows too many unrelated changes.

Also, it would be good to patrol edits for languages you know because the
descriptions are being shown and editable in the Wikipedia app making it
vulnerable to vandalism (so many vandalism in this area goes unnoticed for
a while and sometimes gets fixed by another reader which is suboptimal).

So Lucas [1] and I had a pet project to allow you see unpatrolled edits
related to a language in Wikidata. It has some basic integration with ORES
and if you see a good edit and mark it as patrolled it goes away from this
list. What I do usually is to check this page twice a day for Persian
langauge which given the size of it, that's enough.

It's in https://tools.wmflabs.org/wdvd/index.php the source code is in
https://github.com/Ladsgroup/Vandalism-dashboard and you can report
issues/bug/feature requests in
https://github.com/Ladsgroup/Vandalism-dashboard/issues

Please spread the word and any feedback about this tool is very welcome :)
