> How are thanks notifications different from mention notifications?

Mentions are created via a link in a wiki page. They're more public actions,
because even if you don't see the notification generated, you can see that
someone's userpage was linked to. Thanks are generated only via clicking the
"thank" button on a diff or history page, next to undo. For these and all
notifications, you are not privy to whether someone received the notification
or not. The other difference is that the "thank" button is created via a
separate extension, while mentions are built in to Echo. 

That's pretty much it, to talk about it at a very high level.
