Pixelface <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #4 from Pixelface <[email protected]> 2009-01-24 18:35:03 UTC --- My watchlist has over 65,000 pages on it and deleting them all via Special:Watchlist/raw results in a server timeout. I asked about my watchlist here: [[Wikipedia:Help_desk#Watchlist_too_big]] I want to clear my watchlist and I tried the 'log in as another user' trick as described by Alex Smotrov at [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_24#Empty_Watchlist.3F]], but I got a server timeout. What are the steps again? I think Mikkalai was worried about the "Clear watchlist" function because that user didn't know if they would be asked to confirm the action: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help_talk:Watching_pages#Confirmation_asked_before_clearing_watchlist Could r26980 be undone so Special:Watchlist&action=clear works (for those rare occasions when a watchlist grows too large), yet make the option to clear the watchlist not visible in the user interface if it worries people? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
