• Small 'c' ("changed") – Displays a small "c" before the title (may not work in some older browsers).

Usage

To use the script, add the following to your common.js.

importScript('User:Anomie/watchlist-change-style-selector.js'); // Linkback: [[User:Anomie/watchlist-change-style-selector.js]]
importStylesheet('User:Anomie/watchlist-change-style-selector.css'); // Linkback: [[User:Anomie/watchlist-change-style-selector.css]]

Once enabled, a selection box will appear on your watchlist in the "Watchlist options" box and on history pages just underneath the legend. Selecting a value from the selection box will immediately change the style applied to the page.
