What's new?

The Collaboration team is delighted to publish its first newsletter! Your feedback is welcome.

This quarter the team will focus on improving Special:RecentChanges and create a ReviewStream, a new feed designed to improve the edit-review process. Both are part of the new Edit Review Improvements project.

Notifications [ More information · Help pages ]

Seneste ændringer

Documentation concerning Notifications types has been updated. That page is ready for translations. [1]
For developers, how to create a new Notification type has been updated. [2]
Tools owners will be notified when OAuth app changes state. [3]
When you edit text and mention a new username they are notified if you add your signature. Before this only happened under certain conditions. [4]
Users are notified if they are mentioned in a section where you add your own signature even if you edit more than one section. Before, users were not notified if you edited more than one section in one edit. [5]
Sometimes when you mention another user they don't get a notification. Now you can get a notification when you successfully send out a mention to someone or be told if they did not get a notification. This is an opt-in option in your preferences. [6][7]
On Notifications, the badge is colored if you have some notifications. If you see these notifications, the badge will turn grey on all wikis instead of just the local one. [8]

Problems

For some users, cross-wiki notifications haven't been working properly. The count has been wrong when only cross-wiki notifications were present. The cross-wiki bundle has been showing only the names of wikis and not the actual notifications. It has been fixed. [9][10]
When a title was created with some wikitext inside of it, Notifications were not linking that title when they were mentioned. This is now fixed. [11]
Some Notifications messages were not supporting {{GENDER:}}. This is now fixed. [12]

Fremtidige ændringer

On Special:Notifications, pages and counts related to disabled notification types will not be shown anymore. [13]

Problemer
