So this message, called "thanks-thanked-notice" in the code, appears to have been added awhile back without sufficient design review or input.[1][2] It's not part of the original design requirements for Thanks. It's unclear from the bug or commit that added it exactly why we need this message, or where it appears. Do you get this via your notifications tray? I'd support simply removing this notification. The UI already makes clear in-line when a thanks was sent. Unless people really requested a read status notification and find it valuable, we should just defer to keeping notifications volume low. 1. https://git.wikimedia.org/commitdiff/mediawiki%2Fextensions%2FThanks/ab8b7847c36bf0b053a397ec5689c6a9b9615bd5 2. https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63509 _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
