As we all know, GW FAQs are hidden deep within the dark corners of their official website, and only be navigating a sea of "what's new!!" can we find our precious argument killers.
My question: Is there a way to know when an official FAQ is updated? It seems like sometimes these things (such as the July 5th Ork update) just pop out of the ground with no warning or way of knowing an update has occurred. Has anyone come up with an official way of tracking these updates other than by clicking each FAQ daily? If so, please let me know.

The only way to know is to check the FAQ.

They do updates and do not tell people, just bookmark the page with the FAQ list and check it however often you feel like it.

Actually they mention new FAQs in What's New Today a day or two after they release it.

Usually it's only a small paragraph at the beginning or at the end so you have to keep a lookout for them.

Well, it looks like it's a static page. If you were so inclined, you could probably write a clever script that pulls the FAQ page here once a day, and if it detects a change on the website in the actual content section, it notifies you that it's changed.

Other than that, not really, no.
