User:W1k13rh3nry/Recent Changes Patrol Page

This is a list of templates for Wikipedian recent changes patrollers to copy and paste from instead of having a billion different pages open. It also saves a few seconds for people who don't want to have to constantly type in the page that was vandalised or remove the PageName thing.
