This sole purpose of this page is to help you add a page to your "watchlist". The benefit of adding a page to your watchlist is that you will receive an email whenever new content is added to the page of interest.

Manually adding a page to your watchlist takes just three simple steps:

  1. Login in to Saintapedia
  2. Go to the page of interest
  3. Click the Watchlist star near the search window.

Each of the steps is described in greater detail below for your reference.

Step 1: Logging in

If you already have an account, simply click the "Login" option in the upper right corner of the screen.

Step 2: Navigate to your page

If someone sent you a link to the page, simply click that link. If you know the page name, search for it in the search box.

Refer to Section 5 in the graphic above.

Step 3: Click the watchlist star

The watchlist star is a simple toggle. If the page is not currently on your watchlist, clicking the star will add it. If the page is currently on your watchlist, clicking the star will remove it.

  • When the star is blue, the page is on your watchlist.
  • When the star is white (empty outline), the page is not on your watchlist.
