Preferences: Notification sorting order of `Edit to my user page`
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

User story & summary:

As an editor, I want to quickly parse Notification preferences, so that I can adjust them

Background & research:

This was suggested by Enwiki editor: changing the ordering of this new preference, moving it to the 2nd-from-top, so that the 2 related types are next to each other. i.e.

  • Edit to my user talk page
  • Edit to my user page

Since these two notifications are similar and can easily be confused, it likely makes sense to have them close together.

Acceptance Criteria:

Given I visit my Notification Preferences
When I view the Notify me about these events section,
Then Edit to my user talk page and Edit to my user page are next to each other in the list

Event Timeline

I was actively surprised that these two preferences were not adjacent when I went to turn on notifications for edits to my userpage.

Checked in wmf.7 - the notifications "Edit to my user talk page" and " Edit to my user page" (Preferences page) are placed according to the specs:
