Pin a page or query to a site's weekly drop check

Pin a page (its URL) or a query (its text) to a site's weekly drop check, beside the site, its page groups and keyword clusters and the 25 pages and 25 queries with the most clicks; at most 50 pinned a site. Give page or query, never both. A page must sit under the site's Search Console properties (VALIDATION_FAILED otherwise); a pin already there is answered as it is. A pinned subject is judged once it has 379 days of figures (sudden falls) and 421 (lasting falls). Pin only what your human asked to watch. Paid (alerts): BILLING_REQUIRED on a site that is not paid for.
