page creation
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Email

Bug 14901 was closed because we're now in a much better situation and on the
right path, but there's more to do:
(Quoting from bug 14901 comment #64)

A proper and complete fix would require the notification system in core and
other core features or extensions to communicate in some way, but that will be
another bug.
