Hoi,
Why is Commons ticker not active on the English Language Wikipedia ?
Thanks,

That would help, but it's often not the uploader
who is responsible for
the use of an image on a Wiki. One needs a more general way to notify
the editors who are watching the page on which the image is used.
At the moment, CommonsTicker does not work on the English Wikiedia, and
there is no way an en.W user can be advised in advance that a particular
Commons image is likely to be deleted.
One option would be to write some code that would leave a short message
on the talk page of any article on which an image nominated for deletion
is in use.
Anyone care to write something like that?

Why don't we suggest turning the "Notify
me per e-mail when my talk
page is edited" feature on by default for new accounts? That would
effectively do the same thing, but without a bot.

That would be really good. Full support!

Some years ago I created {{notify me}}. The idea
was to make the bot
responsible for alerting local projects of deleted and altered pictures
(CommonsTicker?) notify people on their home wiki. Unfortunately that
function got never implemented.
The template is/was mentioned at every welcome page users see when they
register on Commons. The majoritiy of registration processes should be
obsolete with SUL, but maybe we can get Duesentrieb to implement the
feature ...
Best regards,
Flo
