As discussed, I found a couple small copy issues related to the email digest on
MediaWiki.org:


1. Subject line
It would be great if the subject line could include the site name, as follows:

'You have new notifications on Wikipedia today'

(instead of: 'You have new notifications today')


2. Add a salutation

To be consistent with the HTML email specs, I recommend we add a 'Hi'
salutation at the top of the plain text emails, to help make them a bit
friendlier:

'Hi Fabrice Florin'

(instead of: 'Fabrice Florin')


3. Add colons (:) to category headers

Given that we have no formatting on plain text emails, I think that adding a
':' colon after the category headers would help establish the relation between
the header and the contents below:

'Page link:'

(instead of: 'Page link')


Here are the full feature requirements for this Email Digest feature:
