Bug ID: 57447
Summary: notification of posts on my topic is misleading
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Flow

I created a topic title with no first post, and then when people commented on
the topic, I got notifications
<Name> replied to your post in <topic title> on "<board>"
View post:
<http://ee-flow.wmflabs.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Flow_Team_Retrospective&workflow=0509f793805b34dffb6efa163e68c4ac&action=view#flow-post-0509f7b8c0cf34dffb6efa163e68c4ac>
Since I never wrote a post, this is misleading.
I think we need a separate message for top-level posts on a topic. Since the
placeholder text for these is 'Comment on "<topic title>"', maybe the
notification should be
<Name> commented on the topic "<topic title>" you created on "<board>."
(It's not "your topic" since that implies ownership of a topic.)
Does someone who edits a topic title gets notifications? If so, then their
message could be
<Name> commented on the topic "<topic title>" that you edited on "<board>."
