Hi @1234qwer1234qwer4, thanks for taking the time to report this! You wrote "some wikis" but only mention scnwiki.

Local on-wiki content is managed independently on each wiki, by each wiki community themselves. This needs fixing on the local wiki by deleting (or adjusting) Please delete https://scn.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Enotif_body . Hence I am closing this task here - thanks for your understanding!

Aklapper renamed this task from Missing line breaks in email notification on some wikis to Missing line breaks in email notifications on scnwiki (due to local overwrite).Jul 6 2021, 9:56 AM

(For the string to check in the MediaWiki software itself, see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/source/mediawiki/browse/master/languages/i18n/scn.json$1749 which could be edited at https://translatewiki.net/wiki/MediaWiki:Enotif_body/scn )

Just for clarification, would a change like this require community consensus (there doesn't seem to be a lot of activity on scnwiki) or can this be done by any interface editor?

I don't know what the local rules are for editing content on a page on a local wiki - you'll have to ask the local wiki for that
