I don’t know how much attention admins pay to this, but as a (non-admin) user who nominates non-notable items for deletion every now and then, I always forget to check subscribed wikis. I’ve had to create a template that states that there are no subscribed wikis, which reminds me to actually check it. 😀 So I think this would be quite useful (much more important than T315828, which can be checked by opening the item page itself).
