FYI this one might be a dupe of https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T287307. I'm more in favor of closing T287307 since this one has more detail.

[1] To confirm, we're ok with these notifications not displaying in the Notifications Center, correct? Also, since the existing engineering infrastructure for these are for them to be presented like a local iOS-style "push" notification, it also wouldn't make sense for us to display them in the Settings > Notifications toggle table unless the user has opted in to push notifications.

Hi! Sorry to clarify @Dmantena by 'not displaying in the Notifications Center' do you mean the in app or system Notifications Center. I was under the assumption that we needed to remove this Notification type entirely, which I am okay with.

Ah sorry re reading, this is about re-instating this notification type.
My expectation would be that the notifications (when push is turned on) will show in the system but not the app notification center (eg user will receive a push and tapping on the push goes to the same location it did before (eg. not routed to the 'in app' notification center / message inbox)

@cmadeo Apologies – our terms are so loaded 😅. Yeah I meant the in app Notification Center.

Your answer here is what I was looking for, thanks!

Sorry to flip flop, but I think I'd like this back on the 6.9 board, just as a final decision check before we release notifications. There may be some further news notification code cleanup to do at that point if we don't decide to support this notification.
