But you can not dismiss this as to dismiss a notification you must view it locally but in the case of private wikis the notification doesn't show on the local wiki

Interesting. @RhinosF1 do you know what type of notification did you receive from the private wiki you don't have access to?

For now I'm marking this as triaged but future as Growth-Team won't have time for it in the short-to-medium term.

@kostajh Erm no, It's private - that's the issue - on the local wiki nothing shows but globally it persists.

@kostajh It's coming from the friends requests part of social profile

That happened to me at least once. There was a request to add an interwiki to a private wiki. I was granted temporary access (member) and upon completion of the task I had my permission withdrawn and could not remove the notification for not having the permission. I requested again the flag for to mark the notification as read and disable my notifications in the wiki so as not to have any problems.
