The most sensible approach is always, in my opinion, that of least surprise. A variable named "users notified of ALL changes" should either do what its name says it does or be renamed (to $wgUsersNotifiedOnEveryoneElsesChanges, perhaps). The optimal solution may be to have a per-user setting for "notify me of my own edits" and allow both watchlists and $wgUsersNotifiedOnAllChanges to respect this setting. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
