Hi @Lofhi, thanks for taking the time to report this!

Which MediaWiki skin and which web browser is used by those who experience this problem?

One uses Microsoft Edge, version 42.17134.1.0 with the Vector skin and reports that the problem has been appearing periodically for months.

Another one uses Google Chrome, version 63.0.3239.108 with Monobook. The problem appeared two days ago.

A third one uses Google Chrome too, version 75.0.3770.100 with Monobook. His case is a little different, since he does not receive any notifications....

I will update this message based on feedback.

Aklapper changed the task status from Open to Stalled.Jul 18 2019, 1:14 AM

For Monobook, I wonder if this is the same as T226875 which is resolved. Is this still experienced by Monobook users? The Edge/Vector issue might be different.

We will revisit this if more information comes in.

A user who previously reported the problem receives the notifications again, but the problem still appears for a maximum of twice a day.

Report from another user here. Nevertheless, he has just indicated that the problem has disappeared... to reappear on Wikidata.

Always always need browser information and skin information, otherwise nothing can be done here.

Yes, it's always forgotten. He answered me: he uses Chrome with the skin Vector. Version not indicated.

So, do we need to merge this task with T228744? Some remarks on the Village pump seem to describe the same problem.
