Hi all, The Collaboration team is currently working on a variety of improvements and updates to the Notifications (Echo) extension.[1]
One task is improving how the many different types of notifications are sorted, into the two fly-out menus. Your feedback would be especially appreciated here.
TL;DR: Please see this spreadsheet, listing the Current split, and 3 alternative groupings: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eVQVbzVhhVejEMnVqRBC98weBnfrnZqcGExl... (or a simplified version, and without the 3rd more complex "Experimental" grouping, at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T123018 )
The team is currently recommending we start off with the "By urgency" grouping. There is a list of Pros/Cons for each, in the spreadsheet.
Please give us feedback, either at phabricator, or at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Sw196pvf5vwt6pku
Detailed information on the goals and background of this task, is included in both the phabricator and mediawiki.org links.
Much thanks, Quiddity / Nick
