Built-in notifications framework
Cross-wiki notification is an enhancement to the
notifications tool
that lets you see messages from all Wikimedia wikis on the wiki in which you are currently working.
Information displayed
edit
Principle of cross-wiki notifications: You are notified at the wiki you are on, about all notifications from other wikis. You can see the details and perform some actions.
Cross-wiki notifications are displayed as items in the notifications panels. (The sorting of items is still being decided at
phab:T123018
.)
These cross-wiki notifications are bundled into a single notification. This bundle is expandable by clicking on it. Cross-wiki notifications from an individual wiki are grouped together.
Please
give us feedback
if you have any problems with it, and tell us what you like about it!
What information, and where
edit
You will receive notifications from all other wikis than the wiki you are currently visiting.
For example, if you are on Commons, you will receive a notification if someone thanks you on Vietnamese Wiktionary.
You may receive unread notifications from other wikis, sometimes pending for a long time.
It is possible to deactivate cross-wiki notifications on a given wiki (see below).

If you want to opt out from cross-wiki notifications on all Wikimedia wikis (or keep them only on selected ones), you can deselect the option in
your global preferences
, which can be overridden locally in the (local) preferences of a given wiki.
