===Watchlist===
Account holders, including all editors and contributors, have the option of adding pages to a watchlist so they can follow content they handle and receive a notification when the pages are altered. You receive email notifications (see [[Clicklaw Wikibooks Contributor Guide#Email notification | setting up email notification]]) or be shown an overview of the changes from the [[Special:Watchlist | Watchlist]] page.
====Adding pages to watchlist====
To add a page to your watchlist you must be logged in. From the page you wish to add, click the star icon beside the "History" tab. <br />[[File:Adding_a_page_to_the_watchlist.png  |border| 900px | link=]]

==== Edit your watchlist ====
Delete pages you no longer want to watch or receive notifications about. Check the box beside the name of the page you want to delete from the watchlist, then click "Remove titles". The pages will be deleted from the watchlist only, not from the wiki.
