When you watch a page, you are notified by email whenever the page is modified.

You will receive email notifications for:

• page edits (unless the "Minor change" checkbox is ticked before saving) or page deletion
• attachments (including new versions of an existing attachment or deletions of an existing attachment)
• comments (including new comments, edits of existing comments or deletions of existing comments).

Note: You will not receive notifications when page content changes simply due to the output of a macro.

For example: The output of the {children} macro will change if someone adds a child page. The page when displayed will show the new child page. But the page content itself has not been edited, so no notifications will be sent.

To watch a page, you require 'View' permission for the page.
