http://meta.wikipedia.org/Enotif
Hello all developers and mediawikipedians,
I need urgently to know, pushy as I am, whether or not you are in favour of having User_talk: ***and*** User: pages treated in the same way: currently, only User_talk pages show the "You have new messages" label and trigger an ENotif in CVS HEAD versions, if the user has opted-in.
However more and more users have asked me whether I could also supervise the accompanying ***User*** page, so that changes on this page are also triggering ENotifs.
I suggest:
to modify the MediaWiki behaviour, so that both, the User_talk:X *and* User:X pages trigger the "you have new messages" flag and also an ENotif(if enabled). Of course, changes of User X do neither trigger the display of the marker nor an ENotif.
Looking forward to your answers, please reply to mailto:mail@wikinaut.de?Subject=ENotif%20also%20for%20Userpages

With or without Enotif (which would be very nice): yes please to this being triggered by the User page changing!
(This would also save on people feeling they have to lock their user page against vandals ...)
