Patch for extension with example hooks
In order to customize the parameters which could be passed to the email notification message, developers would have to hack the original code.
This solution would allow developers to add or modify parameters using a hook extension. It comes complete with an example.
An example of this is the case where the notification is used by the administrator to facilitate the approval and addition of rights to a user.
Example of a customized, administrator facilitating message with extended parameters that has a link to go and approve the user as well as another link that generates a message to the requester automatically (note, to use this you would also have to modify MediaWiki:Newusernotifbody and MediaWiki:Newusernotifsubj)
