--- Comment #5 from Fabrice Florin <[email protected]> ---
Hi Benny, we have no plans to re-enable the Dismiss feature in its current
form. The reason we disabled it is because we decided it was not appropriate at
the category level, and needs a different design with more granularity.

So there is no longer any need to support that old feature. Instead, let's
optimize for the current feature which is live. Once HTML email is deployed in
a couple weeks, we can revisit that decision.

While we're discussing email copy, there are a few other issues I recommend we
fix:

* Individual email notification titles should also have 'on Wikipedia' at the
end, if we are on a wikipedia.org site. For example, we should say: 'You have a
new talkpage message on Wikipedia'.

* The first sentence in individual email notifications about talk pages should
have a ':' colon at the end of the sentence, so that it can refer to the
payload text below. For example: 
'Fabrice Florin posted on your talk page:
/* Kudos on deploying Notifications! */ new section'

* The first sentence in individual email notifications about page links should
have a '.' period at the end of the sentence, so that you know the sentence has
ended. For example: 
'Tam Valley was linked from Golden Gate National Recreation Area.'

Please check that all sentences in other individual notifications have an
appropriate punctuation mark at the end, so we send grammatically correct
notifications to our users.

Thanks!
