For watching other wikis for changes, you would probably need to manually load those changes into the server wiki using a separate script from the one above, which would then trigger that script to send the changes to the client.
If you are watching your own folder, I think it would work basically the same way. Don't forget to take folder prefixes into account. Check the file system adapter to see where and how it saves files and load the files using the same settings. It might not matter though since you want to load all changed files anyway. How do you have it setup if the metadata and actual data files are two separate files? Hope that helps.
