Forum:Blog article feature feedback

Starting a topic for the Blog article feature because one doesn't seem to exist yet. Anyways, it would be lovely if blog articles I created via the special page would be added to my watchlist or not according to my regular watchlist preferences (under "articles I created"), just in case an admin comes in and edits it. Also, a separate checkbox to "Watch articles I commented on" would be lovely. -Afker All hail AliceSoft! 19:13, 23 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the suggestions :) These two features are indeed planned. 17:35, 29 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I would be interested in testing this extension, or at least being one of the first wikis for implementation. I have a concern about the RSS though. Let's say I use this feature to create news postings, yet I also use it to write an op-ed, while in the meantime someone is using the RSS tracking to monitor the news postings. Is my op-ed going to show up in that RSS? --LordTBT Talk! 22:04, 31 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Bumping. --LordTBT Talk! 00:47, 27 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Unsure about the RSS issue. Which wiki are you proposing it for use on? Should be able to sort that out :) 16:24, 29 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Redwall. -- LordTBT Talk! 04:35, 30 January 2009 (UTC)


 * An explanation of the RSS would help too; would it be possible for example to only track blogs that have "News:" in the title of the postings, etc? It's a big concern. -- LordTBT Talk! 05:20, 30 January 2009 (UTC)


 * RSS update: as far as I recall, it's only for user blog pages - for example, http://swfanon.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Kirkburn has an associated feed just for my blog posts. I can put it live whenever, just give me a prod on my user page when you're around and I'll set it up (assuming I'm around too :P ) 15:56, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

And now I have some feedback. :) When previewing a blog posting before submitting, the categories are not all displayed. -- LordTBT Talk! 20:05, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
