Description

Might even be legally required in the EU, but is also just handy for those who have no clue about why they receive these mails.

bzimport raised the priority of this task from to Needs Triage.Nov 21 2014, 11:35 PM
bzimport added a project: MediaWiki-Email.
bzimport set Reference to bz29022.

For a quick workaround, add a couple line to [[MediaWiki:Enotif_body]] like:

To change your email notification settings, visit
{{fullurl:{{#special:Preferences}}}}

Unfortunately the whole email body is a single message, so updating it in core will require updating all localizations, *and* any customized sites might need to update theirs.

Went ahead and added this for the English messages on trunk in r88294.

I *think* LocalisationUpdate should pick it up automatically after a bit where the message hasn't already been customized; any localizations already existing for this message will need to be updated in TranslateWiki.

Roan reminded me that LU won't pick up a change in English localizations, so he's merging to deployment to get it out.
