Relatives on watchlist

Hi all,
Every now and then I am approached by a distant cousin who is also active on Wikitree. I really enjoy that and it also motivates me to further expand my watchlist. I was wondering: is there a way to compare active members with my watchlist?

I don't think you mean watchlist, you just want to see connections to closest active members? (because you can have people on your watchlist that aren't related, and you can have relatives that aren't on your watchlist)

Yes, you're right: Active members connected to my profile.

Hi Rob,
I agree that finding new genealogist cousins is one of the best things about WikiTree.
I don't think this is what you're asking, but one new way to find active cousins is to monitor your ancestor and connection activity feeds, like this one:

I think your suggestion is the only way, for now. But, the chance that you will encounter a cousin is very small.
Could be a nice app, based on the 'connection finder'.
(Wauw, an astronaut. Way to go.)
