Watchlist not working

6 replies [Last post]

My watchlist doesn't respond anymore. It just shows the three vibrating dots forever. Is anyone else having this problem?

Yes, kind of

Yes, I see the dots, too, but the watchlist itself seems to work fine. I briefly added one page in recent changes to my watchlist and it did show in the list, under the three dots.

Recent changes page has a similar problem. There used to be a form / menu for filtering changes and setting how many changes and from how long ago should be displayed. Now the form doesn't load and shows only the three dots animation. It didn't work properly before either: changing filters in any way cleared all changes from the list and drop down lists were rendered behind the page itself.

From briefly clicking around the wiki, I also found that search form on User contribution page cannot be expanded / collapsed.

lot of stuff seems broken

tables don't seem to be sortable anymore, on pages like e.g. Sword - the button is unresponsive.

and mouseover text is now hard displayed as normal text, e.g. on any equipment page

Hey man

Hey man, eBay support forum is that way.

table sorting

Kyiia, if you're thinking of the same table sorting that I'm thinking of, then that feature has been broken for years. I'm not saying that it shouldn't be fixed. I'm just saying that the loss of my watchlist is a brand new problem. :)

update

Here's what's currently happening. My watchlist page shows the three vibrating dots forever. But under those three vibrating dots it shows the watchlist itself --- meaning, the recent changes to articles that I care about.

When I was just seeing the three dots, here's what was probably happening: There were no recent changes to articles that I care about.

There remains the bug of the dots vibrating forever, but at least I seem to have a working watchlist below them. :)

in retrospect

In retrospect, this is what Nitronicx was trying to tell me in post #1. I just didn't understand. Thanks anyway.
