This wiki has two basic ways for you to be informed of content changes. One is through your wiki watchlist, the other is through Syndicated feeds.
[edit] Using Syndicated Feeds
See CaseWiki:Feeds.
[edit] Using Your Watchlist
Once you are logged in to the wiki, you have the ability to create a customized list of pages to watch. When these pages are changed, the wiki can notify you through many outlets.
[edit] Accessing Your Watchlist
Your watchlist can be accessed by browsing to Special:Watchlist or by clicking the link to My Watchlist in the top right corner of any page. This page will display all the recent changes on pages in your watchlist. If a change has been made and you haven't seen that change yet, the link to the page will be in bold.
[edit] Adding Items to Your Watchlist
The easiest way to add an item to your watchlist is to click the Watch tab directly above the article title. An alternate method is to click the Watch this page checkbox directly above the Save page button when editing articles. Additionally, you can set your user preferences to automatically have this box checked for any page you edit.
[edit] Receiving E-mail Notifications
It is possible to receive an e-mail notification every time a page on your watchlist is modified. In Special:Preferences under User data, check the desired checkboxes next to the Send me an e-mail items.
