Various aspects of Wikipedia can be monitored with RSS or Atom feeds to make it easier to keep track of changes.
Atom (1.0) feeds
[edit]- Changes to any Wikipedia article: go to the article's history page and use the toolbox link labeled "Atom" to subscribe to this feed
- Recent changes (alternatively: go to Special:RecentChanges and use the toolbox link labeled "Atom" to subscribe to this feed)
- New pages (alternatively: go to Special:NewPages and use the toolbox link labeled "Atom" to subscribe to this feed)
- User watchlist feed; watchlist with all changes (not just the most recent)
- Contribution pages for a specific user: go to the user's contribution page and use the toolbox link labeled "Atom" to subscribe to this feed
RSS feeds
[edit]- Changes to any Wikipedia article: https://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=ARTICLENAME&action=history&feed=rss, where ARTICLENAME is the article's name as it appears in your browser's address bar (i.e. with spaces replaced by underscores, etc.)
- Recent changes
- New Pages
- User watchlist feed; watchlist with all changes (not just the most recent)
- User contributions: http://wiki.riteme.site/w/api.php?action=feedcontributions&user=USERNAME, where USERNAME is the name of the user whose contributions should be included in the feed
Watchlist feed with token
[edit]You can set up an RSS or Atom feed of your watchlist that is accessible even when logged out:[1]
- Go to Special:Preferences
- Click the "Watchlist" tab
- Go to the "Token" section and click the "Manage tokens" button
- On this "Reset tokens" page, copy and paste the randomly-generated value token value for the next step[2]
- Your watchlist RSS feed can be found at
https://wiki.riteme.site/w/api.php?action=feedwatchlist&wlowner=USERNAME&wltoken=TOKEN
, where USERNAME is your username without the User: prefix and TOKEN is the watchlist token you copied from your preferences. If you would prefer an Atom feed rather than an RSS one, add "&feedformat=atom" to the Link of your feed. - Similar to your watchlist preferences, the feed of your watchlist can be customized by adding different parameters to the link of your feed, see documentation on Mediawiki. e.g.
&hours=72&wlexcludeuser=USERNAME
to display the maximum length and to exclude your own changes.
XML exports
[edit]You can export the contents of a particular article or set of articles in XML format via the Special:Export page. This special page allows exporting the history of the page as well (up to 1000 revisions). Test out the full-history export on a page with a short history, to make sure you know what you are getting.
