- Is it possible to exclude edits by a specific user? For example, edits by User:ClueBot NG.
- Is it possible to exclude edits whose summary contains a specific string? For example, edits whose summary contains "The Wikipedia Adventure".

- WP:Special:RecentChanges allows you to set filters and save them, including excluding bots. Let me know if you need more help. Flat Out (talk) 04:58, 7 January 2025 (UTC)

Group edits: is it helpful for patrolling?
Dear Patrollers, I would like to ask your opinion of the enhanced view for tracking changes, listed as Group changes by page in recent changes and watchlist in your Preferences.
The linked Help page mentions that losing the leading links for diff/hist can make patrolling more difficult and I wondered if that is accurate to your experience or if you have workaround solutions to account for this?
And do you use this grouping edits feature and find it helpful or efficient for your anti-vandalism / patrolling tasks? Thank you, - Danny Benjafield (WMDE) (talk) 08:41, 26 March 2025 (UTC)
Obvious vandalism missed last year?
Maybe it will be helpful for some script/bots/etc: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Science_fiction_(disambiguation)&diff=prev&oldid=1227691586 Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:31, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
I think I found one...
I might have found vandalism, but I will assume good faith and say he was just linking something.[1] here it is. Please notify me if this is a mistake, or hit me with a trout if needed. Thank you.
