Help:Feeds

A web feed is a data format used for serving frequently updated content to users.

A content provider makes feeds available and may publish the feed link on their site. Users can subscribe to the feed using an aggregator application (also called a 'feed reader' or a 'news reader') running on their computer. Some web browsers also have native options for feeds, such as Firefox.

Wikia provides outgoing RSS and Atom feeds for some pages, and pages can display incoming RSS feeds from other sites.

Which pages provide feeds?
RSS and Atom feeds are available for individual articles and for certain special pages. When you visit the page in question, you can append the page's URL with ?feed=rss or ?feed=atom to access the feed URL. If the URL already has elements that use the ? and = characters, you will need to include the & character in front of the feed elements, like &feed=rss or &feed=atom

Changes to any community
Use the URL for the community's Recent Changes page.
 * For example, the RSS feed URL for recent changes on Community Central: http://c.wikia.com/wiki/Special:RecentChanges?feed=rss

New pages added to any community
Use the URL for the community's New Pages page.
 * For example, the RSS feed URL for new pages on Community Central: http://c.wikia.com/wiki/Special:NewPages?feed=rss

New pages added to a specific namespace
Use the URL for the community's New Pages page and append
 * For example, the RSS feed URL for new pages from the thread  namespace (1201) on Community Central: http://c.wikia.com/wiki/Special:NewPages?feed=rss&namespace=1201

Changes to any wiki article
Use the URL for the article's history page.
 * For example, the RSS feed URL for Community Central's main page: http://c.wikia.com/wiki/Community_Central?action=history&feed=rss
 * Note that the addition of the & is needed here, since the feed element follows ?action=history

RSS watchlist
Use MediaWiki API format for your's followed pages.
 * Format: http://c.wikia.com/api.php?action=feedwatchlist&feedformat=rss&wlowner=MyUserName&wltoken=blahblah
 * feedformat: can be "rss" or "atom"
 * wlowner: your username
 * wltoken: the token you set in your Preference&gt;Under the Hood
 * Note that the addition of the & is needed here, since many other parameters follows ?action=feedwatchlist

More information about this method can be found on API:Watchlist feed on MediaWiki.org.
