Even though I try to check IMFDB for new articles (esp. movies) on a daily basis, I am sometimes unable to do so and a few days may go by. Normally this is no problem, but in the case that somebody has created 8 new actor pages for one single movie, I miss out on recently created new articles because 8 is the maximum quantity of entries being displayed on this page. Would there be a way that I can check not just the last 8 entries, but say the entries created in the last week or so?

New Articles: history available?
Even though I try to check IMFDB for new articles (esp. movies) on a daily basis, I am sometimes unable to do so and a few days may go by. Normally this is no problem, but in the case that somebody has created 8 new actor pages for one single movie, I miss out on recently created new articles because 8 is the maximum quantity of entries being displayed on this page. Would there be a way that I can check not just the last 8 entries, but say the entries created in the last week or so? Thanks for your suggestion, PeeWee055 (talk) 12:39, 26 September 2013 (EDT)
- Try going to Recent Changes then. It's much more extensive. --Funkychinaman (talk) 12:43, 26 September 2013 (EDT)
- I agree, 'Recent Changes' is much more in-depth in terms of history, you can scroll for miles on it, even just for the one day. On the flip side, it also sometimes gets newer edits that aren't updated yet on Latest. I check it out concurrently with the 'Latest Changes' page, which I only consider more as a quick reference.
