Watchlist number coloration

Unfortunately, as an unregistered user I cannot even have a watchlist much less tell you what the numbers (or colors) mean. Sorry about that. There are various help and technical help pages at Wikipedia. I suspect that the answer to the question you posed is either already written or available for the asking at WP:HELP, the Wikipedia:Village pump, etc.

By the way, thank you very much for starting the Haplosporidium nelsoni article. I think both it and the P. marinus article could use some discussion of the quantitative impact the infections have had upon commercial oystering. How do mortality rates of 80 to 95% translate into oyster catch results? What are the current treatment suggestions? Ideally non controversial treatments with references from WP:RELIABLE sources could be used to answer such questions in the article (e.g. refereed journals, reports from a shellfishing commission or agency, and so on). 67.86.73.252 (talk) 22:48, 5 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
