All types of notifications below can be seen on Wikimedia wikis. You can see them on the wiki where you are, on another wiki via cross-wiki notifications, or on the Special:Notifications page.

Some of these notifications are turned off by default or not available on your wiki. If you would like to enable any of these notifications (or disable them), you can do so in your preferences.

Special:DisplayNotificationsConfiguration special page will let you know which notifications are available on your wiki and how they are configured.

  • Sign your comment with ~~~ or ~~~~. Notifications will not be sent if your signature is embedded in a template, or has no link to your user page or user talk page.
  • Do not alter any text outside of your own comment.
  • Do not exceed the limit on the number of mentions (50 on Wikimedia's wikis).
  • Notifications are only sent to logged-in users, i.e. mentioning anonymous users (IPs) is not possible.
