I got this email:

Wikipedia user This, that and the other thanked you for your edit on
Thisisatest.

View your edit:

Nice! But after seeing the link of the edit I also wanted to see who was
thanking me (a natural human reaction). A link to the user page would be
convenient, but it is not provided in the email, neither in the web based

User: namespace the probable result for many will be zero results.

Just adding the link to the web notification and this string to the email would
be enough:

Check $USER's page:
