https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60119 --- Comment #2 from Quiddity pandiculat...@gmail.com --- Screenshot of the problem, as it exists in onwiki Notifications, too: http://i.imgur.com/zPvh0F7.png I believe it's to do with how a post is made - whether it is 4tilde signed or not. Some bot-notices are standard-signed, some are not. It is related to (or duplicated at ?): * bug 57152 (talkpage messages without a 4tilde signature, do not generate correct section links or summary) But that has cross-issues with * bug 53132 (Notifications are not sent when a user mentions another if the signature of the sender contains localized namespaces) * bug 54639 (Echo is not triggering notifications when a mention is made while reorganizing comments in the page) I particularly worry about https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53132#c20 (If the signature requirement is removed, will archiving a talkpage trigger dozens of accidental pings?) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

There are actually at least two inter-related issues here: 1. Whether MassMessage, which currently uses the username MediaWiki message delivery, should instead use the username of the user actually sending the message. There's a related bug about this ... somewhere. 2. Whether this type of construction Username (or bot username) left you a message on site you happened to give your e-mail address to in an e-mail subject line is best. We have some... interesting usernames and bot names that make for odd constructions.

Especially on my phone where eliding happens pretty quickly. Do you have a proposal for a better subject construction? Nope. :-) Though this bug does now have me thinking in other directions. For example, you could remove the username from the subject line and instead have the sender of the e-mail be the username. Some sites have experimented with this. There are also additional variables available, such as $section_header for talk page posts. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Especially on my phone where eliding happens pretty quickly. Do you have a proposal for a better subject construction? Perhaps adding the User: prefix to the $username string? To clarify that User:NuclearWarfare is emailing you, and not the event itself. That would get slightly longer at some of the other languages though... eg. Benutzer: in German. What's the longest i18n string for that variable? There are also additional variables available, such as $section_header for talk page posts. (The occasionally missing $section_header in the body of the email, is the separate bug that I was confusing with this one.

I don't have a problem with the current strings, although I'll give you that the specific MediaWiki message delivery left you a message on Wikipedia is a bit awkward. but i assume this is due to all message originators use the same subject line, for MassMessage we might want to say something like You have a message on Wikipedia but if its a major change to Echo just to allow MassMessage to have a custom subject I'm not sure its worth it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
