/*
This script adds a "Select all nonexistent pages" button to the watchlist edit page
([[Special:Watchlist/edit]]).  To install it, add the line:
  importScript('User:Ilmari_Karonen/unwatchredlinks.js');
to your monobook.js page (or to the corresponding page for other skins).

The button will only select pages that do not exist and do not have existing talk
pages either.  As an unintended -- but probably desirable -- side effect, it will
not select user pages of any existing users either.
