RSS in this wiki

  1. To get a feed out of the wiki:
    1. Of changes to a particular article: go to that article's history (via the history tab), and click on the "rss" or "atom" link in the left-hand navigational sidebar
      getting an rss feed of changes to a wiki page (click for large version)
    2. Of ALL changes to the wiki: go to Special:Recentchanges and click "rss" in the lefthand navigational sidebar
    3. There's not a good way to get an RSS feed of only your watchlist, but you can get changes emailed to you: log in, go to Special:Preferences, and check the "E-mail me when a page I'm watching is changed" box.
  2. To put a feed into the wiki:
    1. simply place this extension code in your page:

<rss number=10>your feed url here </rss>

i.e, <rss number=3>http://lisnews.org/index.rss/</rss>

Which will display three items at a time of the lisnews.org feed, nicely formatted like this:

LISNews - Librarian And Information Science News
