I think this sounds pretty good. Is there any indication how German Wikipedians generally view an implementation like this? I can't imagine English Wikipedians caring about an additional sidebar link/opt-in feature like this. > Apart from enabling users to hide images and add them to their PFL as they > encounter them in surfing our projects, users would also be able to edit > the PFL manually, just as it is possible to edit one's watchlist manually. > In this way, they could add any image file or category they want to their > PFL.

Some sort of subscription service would work well here, right? Where the list can auto-update from a central list on a regular basis. I think that's roughly how in-browser ad block lists work. Seems like it could work well. Keep who pulls what lists private, though, I suppose. > For unregistered users, their PFL could be stored in a cookie. I'm not sure you'd want to put it in a cookie, but that's an implementation detail. Watchlist editing is generally based on looking at titles. I don't suppose you'd want a gallery of hidden images, but it would make filter-list editing easier, heh.
