User blog comment:Sarah Manley/Followed pages - a new way to stay up-to-date on your favorite wiki pages/@comment-254481-20100509104845

Bad. Special:Following only allows the user to remove followed pages. New edits are not seen. I have to type in "Special:Watchlist" every time I want to view it, which is often. The "Pages I'm Following" table at the side is useless and simply distracting. I do not see the point of receiving an email every time an edit is made to a page I'm following. Another useless update, I'm afraid.
