[edit] Status
This suggestion is being archived since it is considered complete. [edit] Original Suggestion & DiscussionIt would be helpful in some cases if there were an option to filter the "What links here" results to only show the items which are currently being watched by the user doing the query. It could be a button or a checkbox (I don't have a preference). Moverton 18:28, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
I think this suggestion is closely related to the Implied References from Transcripts. It is also closely related to WeRelate:Suggestions/Sort template for the 'what links here' page The "What links here" pages have many uses, but all users might appreciate if the entries were grouped into a single run each for Sources, Places, Redirected Places, Images, Persons and Families. Each new entry on a County, State or County Place page is automatically and immediately sorted by Place type. Providing a similar filter here would be useful. Also, if the "What links here" entries for a page are greater than 500, would it be possible to have a permanent list of 500 at one go? At present the number viewable always reverts to 50--frustrating if one is doing a series of checks. --Goldenoldie 18:56, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
[edit] Neutral Watchers[edit] Admin Follow upWe are currently working through the backlog of suggestions. Discussion above can be broken down into requests for [edit] a. ability to select "Watched only" on WhatlinkshereStatus: Partially resolved. This ability does not exist at this time. However, this request was entered before the Search function was updated which does provides the ability to Search for pages that are "Watched only" in addition to specifying other parameters which can return results similar to those on a Whatlinkshere page. Will this satisfy this request? If no response or objections are received within 10 days, this first request will be moved to the archive. --cos1776 19:21, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
[edit] b. ability to sort Whatlinkshere using a templateThe suggestion WeRelate:Suggestions/Sort template for the 'what links here' page fits in this section also. sortability using a template would be great! Select either family, person, place or sort alphabetically.
[edit] c. change default sort to page title on WhatlinkshereStatus: Resolved. Ex. Wikipedia If no objections are received within 10 days, this second request will be moved to the archive. --cos1776 19:21, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
[edit] d. change default rows to 500 on Whatlinkshere and SearchStatus: Remains active. Priority = 3 (low). --cos1776 19:21, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
