--- Comment #18 from Philippe Verdy <[email protected]> 2009-11-14 16:25:46 UTC --- I am NOT "speculating" about implementation details. I am only refering to the visible effects of these implementations. This is really different. Some recent changes in some wikis have been made recently (even after this bug was discussed here) that caused similar problems: a new functionality was added without notice in some rarely visited wiki which caused that wiki to send emails for each page that was previously just part of the list of pages to monitor ONLINE (whcich was not an option to monitor them offline by email). Think twice when adding new fucntionality that invades user privacy or user's mailboxes and make this option active by default. Anyway thanks for pointing bug 14950 (which is now really old and more urgently needs a fix now). We do need global overrides (independantly of how it will be implemented) and we still need some local overrides that will allow users to bypass some global defaults in some specific wikis (including their "home" wiki for SUL) that users can "trust" and that they reagularly visit for participating actively. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
