I think this is probably the best thread to continue this discussion, apologies if not.

@sam, in [this thread](https://meta.discourse.org/t/category-setting-new-topics-are-wiki-by-default/16618/10), you mentioned this idea:

> [@Category setting: new topics are wiki by default](https://meta.discourse.org/t/category-setting-new-topics-are-wiki-by-default/16618/10):

> Every edit to the OP wiki, makes the system add a system message like so:

I like this idea, and think it could work well in my community (we’re considering moving our wiki from mediawiki into discourse). Is it something that would be considered as a PR to core, or should I be thinking about a plugin?

Alternatively, is there now a better solution for allowing people to “watch/track” a wiki post for changes?
