Hi all! I’m a Product Manager at the Wikimedia Foundation. As part of an offsite we’re having this week with a few Product teams, we had a small hackathon and our team worked on this request. Progress is tracked at T334246 and we've filed a patch ready for review.

Our implementation adds a ‘Mark page as read’ link in the Global Watchlist alongside every entry. If you aren’t grouping by page, clicking this button will mark all edits to this page as read. From our investigation it seemed technically infeasible to mark each individual edit to a page as read if you're not grouping by page.

Please let me know if you have any questions! Samwalton9 (WMF) (talk) 19:15, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The patch has now been merged and will be live this week. Samwalton9 (WMF) (talk) 11:21, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
