It's not a bug. Emails are willfully disabled. We also don't have the "Email this user" link, because our account details are on Commons I assume.

• Commons > Special:EmailUser/Olaf : works.
• Lingualibre > Special:EmailUser/Olaf returns:

User email disabled
You cannot send email to other users on this wiki

I think this should goes with an higher integration with the Wikimedia galaxy, together with getting and sending back red-circle notifications.

In my opinion, we should keep it this way, hide the relevant sections and add an "email this user" link via JS which actually leads to :Commons:Special:EmailUser/{username}. Various ways to do so. The other way around would have CNIL implications, which are now handled by Commons.wikimedia.org

I disabled the user emails in the config (https://github.com/lingua-libre/operations/commit/be601e684b4cff2fda0b43a4e2b49b32652a585d) - this changes nothing from the user's POV, since mails were disabled anyway : https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgEnableUserEmail.

However, I could not find a way to disable that link.

I see no "email this user" link on user profiles. The user preference is hidden deep into the preferences. We have ton other tickets to handle. So we are good, arent we ?

Can be a good first task to fix via User:{pseudo}/common.js mini script, to then migrate to MediaWiki:Common.js
