/* This script adds an "unwatch" link to each entry in your watchlist.  This version works regardless of whether you have the "Enhanced recent changes" option selected in your [[Special:Preferences|user preferences]].  By default the links take you back to [[Special:Watchlist|your watchlist]].  If you'd prefer them to take you to a "Removed from watchlist" page like the unwatch links at the top of the watched pages, uncomment the second line in the function. 

Other versions:
* [[User:Ilmari_Karonen/unwatch.js]] (''legacy script'')
* [[User:Quarl/watchlist.js]]
* [[user:js/watchlist]]
* [[Bugzilla:424]] (if implemented)
