Grants:IdeaLab/Create a user watchlist to track specific users' contributions

Create a user watchlist to track specific users' contributions
Create a watchlist that is similar to the current one. The difference would be that you would add users to the list instead of pages. This way we could keep track of users that we see have a potential to be vandals or problematic.

Vandalism and users that contribute poorly.
