Bug ID: 54433
Summary: Messages about talk pages are not completely adapted
to non-talk namespaces
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Echo

Messages such as 'Yoshimi mentioned you on talk page in "Wyoming"' do not work
completely well with discussion pages in other namespaces.
For example, in the English Wikipedia [[Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)]] is
itself a discussion page, and it also has a talk page - [[Wikipedia
talk:Village pump (technical)]]. So when the message says 'Yoshimi mentioned
you on talk page in "Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)"' does it refer to the
main page or to the talk page?
My proposed solution is to create new message that won't mention the word
"talk" in the message if the page is not actually in one of the talk
namespaces. Something like this: 'Yoshimi mentioned you in a discussion in
"Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)"'.
This was noticed by Dolev ([[User:דולב]]), an experienced user on the Hebrew
Wikipedia.
