Akoopal added a comment. roughly 3 options that can be quick: - Don't let the bot sign the nomination message - Change the bot signature to something non-standard so it doesn't trigger a ping. - Have the nomination messages done by a different bot account. The first two will also stop the pings done when the nomination message is placed first, which is a choice. I also asked the question on #wikimedia-tech if a bot edit with bot-flag is supposed to trigger a ping.

Mattflaschen added a comment. Possible solution: On-wiki blacklist per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Echo#Usage . That will block all Echo notifications triggered by the bot, but I think you'll still see the orange bar (since the bot posts nominations on user talk).

Multichill added a comment. Using a bot flag (edit bot=1) or not is a way to (not) trigger orange bars, does that work the same way for echo notifications? - Edit without bot flag: I want to see an orange bar and get an echo notification if I get mentioned - Edit with bot flag: I don't want to see an orange bar and I don't want to get an echo notification when I get mentioned TASK DETAIL https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T128617 EMAIL PREFERENCES https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/ To: Multichill Cc: Multichill, Quiddity, Mattflaschen, Aklapper, Akoopal, tools-nlwikibots-list, codynguyen1116, SBisson, Luke081515, Catrope, valhallasw
