Description:
Hallo!
After vacation you might want to see the changes of some pages starting at your
last contribution.
Another benefit of having a filter for own contributions in "&action=history"
(at a certain title) would be easy identification of your work there.

Hi Reinhardt,
this _could_ be implemented in EnotifWiki in that way: own contributions +
last-seen-revision number
I'll think about this additional feature right _now_ because I support your idea.
Currently, only _watched_ pages keep an identification (in the database) about
the last version, the watching user actually saw (MediaWiki special edition
EnotifWiki see http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enotif ). I simply need to extend
the own contribution list also with this memory; until now, I didn't check how
exactly one's own contributions are marked in the database, but will have a look
into it.
(There is a chance, that it is easy to implement in EnotifWiki)
Tables page, revision and text stores such information - table revision column
rev_user could be used for that.
I propose to <bold>own contributions</bold> which have unseen changes and will
try to find a database-effective solution for it. Any help is appreciated.
Targeting this for 1.20 and bumping importance a bit. This type of feature is important for user retention, surely. You can't make neat tools like "what how you improved this article" if you can't filter &action=history (or Special:Contributions by page, which I guess is a separate bug).

Yes, separate bug for Special:Contributions: bug 10788.
And that comment should obviously read switch "see" for "what".
Looking for disambiguation. This bug is for:

In addition to the seen markers that exist nowadays (shown in previous comment), there is also the watchlist which is capable of showing all edits (not just the last) since the last one you observed. The watchlist feature is limited to 90 days but has the benefit of tracking multiple pages at once. The history page goes beyond that, and rather than being from your last edit is actually since the last diff you've reviewed which I imagine is quite useful.
