Just as when you are working directly on Wikipedia, you can create and maintain your own watchlist in WPCleaner. For example, when you have finished repairing links to a disambiguation page, you can add this disambiguation page to your watch list and memorize the number of pages normally linking to it so that you will easily detect new links to it.

Local watch list
Local watch list

You reach the Local Watch list window by clicking on the Local Watch list button of the main window.

This window is also used for various lists of pages (search results, internal links in a given page, category members, pages embedding a given page, random pages, random redirect pages, ...). It looks like this:


This window contains the following parts:

  • A table listing the pages that you have chosen to watch, with the following information available:
    • The Local watchlist icon is displayed if the page is on your local watchlist.
    • Page: the page name.
    • The Disambiguation page icon is displayed if the page is a disambiguation page.
    • The Redirect page icon is displayed if the page is a redirect page.
    • Main: number of pages in the Main namespace linking to this page.
    • {{.}}: number of pages in the Template namespace linking to this page.
    • Other: number of pages in other namespaces linking to this page.
    • Comments: your own comments about the page. You can change them with the Set page comments button.
      Note: the information displayed in the Main, {{.}} and Other columns are formatted differently depending on several conditions:
      • Empty: the number of pages is unknown. Use the Update page information button to retrieve this information.
      • Grey text on white background: the number of pages is known, but you have not set the normal number of pages (using the Set page comments button).
      • Black text on white background: the number of pages is equal to the normal number of pages.
      • Black text on red background: the number of pages is more than the normal number of pages.
      • Black text on green background: the number of pages is less than the normal number of pages.
  • The Full analysis button opens a new window to analyze the page.
  • The Disambiguation button opens a new window to analyze the page as a disambiguation page.
  • The Check article buttons analyzes contents of the selected page (template usage, …)
  • The x/ button selects the pages on red background (the number of linked pages is greater than expected).

  • The Update disambiguation warning [1] button updates the disambiguation or ISBN warning on the talk page.
  • The Update page information button updates the Main, {{.}} and Other columns information by querying Wikipedia.
