Bot edits are triggering mention notifications. Some bots are prolific and could possibly cause hundreds of notifications to be fired from one "event" (via the bot's perspective).
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Notifications&oldid=561448686">This edit</a> can give context.
Possible solutions include:
- Ignore all bot activity (bot flag = true, then no notification)
- Create a bot "blacklist" (bot in blacklist, then no notification)
Aside from EdwardsBot, I can think that SineBot may have the same problem.
