I'm the sysop of a small MediaWiki site (ghanawiki.info), and I'd like to receive an email notification of any page edit. (A daily digest is fine.)
Looking at my preferences page, I see that "Email me on page changes" is enabled, but that's not happening. There was an edit by an anonymous user a couple weeks ago, but I never got an email about it.
The last time I looked at it, you only get notification when pages on your watchlist are edited, and there's no way to automatically add pages to your watchlist.
I'd like a similar function, I've got a wiki where I'm pretty much, but now quite the sole contributor except for spammers. It's not updated frequently but I'd really like to know if it is, so that I can check to see if something got past the spam trap, or to marvel at the fact that someone made a valid contribution.
When I brought this up some time ago, the only advice I got was to use the rss feed to monitor it, but I'm really looking for a completely passive solution which would dump the notification in my mail which is my main locus of attention.
