In Tamil wikipedia, there are new users coming in large number, as we train many people.
Many of their articles are not good and we add a template for deleting those articles and adding a category for deleting.
We need to notify the authors of the article, when adding a delete template, so that they can improve and prevent deleting.
How to add notification in the talk page of the article or user's talk page, when adding a template?
Hi @Tshrinivasan. This does not sound like something is wrong in the code base as the functionality already exists (as far as I know), but instead like a support request (how to change settings, questions how to do something, etc.).
See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Notifications/Notifications_types#Mentions for more information.
As Wikimedia Phabricator/Maniphest is for bug reports and enhancement requests, I'm closing this task as invalid. (But please reopen if I got something wrong in your request!) Thanks for your understanding!
I'd say this is a feature request, for a deletion tool that templates the page and automatically messages the page author. Such tools exist (QuickDelete on Commons for example) but none of them uses Phabricator as far as I know so you'll have to reach the authors in another way.
QuickDelete seems interesting. Will explore that.
Thanks @Aklapper Will use mailing lists for such support queries.
