"ENotif on changes at own talk pages" feature at the Wikimania2006 wiki

Hallo!

http://wikimania2006.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Preferences provide more options
then the other Wikimedia Foundation projects.

However "E-mail me when my user talk page is changed" is not part of the prefences.
http://wikimania2006.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Tog-enotifusertalkpages

I wonder how a wiki can be functional without this feature: users get contacted
directly but the only way to notice this is that they visit the wiki.

*request*
Please enable the "ENotif on changes at own talk pages" feature at the
Wikimania2006 wiki

Thanks in advance!

best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]

This one is really important - because one cannot be always active on all
projects. It often happened that I saw a note on it.wikipedia only after many
days, since I sometimes do some work there, but not regularly. The same for
commons or meta (well now I am more often at meta, but it can happen that for
some days I cannot visit all pages). It is an option and for many of us it would
be an advantage, in particular for those who contribute to various projects.

So yes, please activate it as option to be set.

Thanks!!!!

I would enable it, if I only could ...

Tom - for Enotif

To whom it may concern and especially the Admins of the Wikimania2006 wiki: How
to enable ?

If the mail subsystem is working (which is usually the case if you can mail you
a temporary password), it's as easy as to set in DefaultSettings.php

$wgEnotifUserTalk = true;

See
http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/branches/REL1_6/phase3/includes/DefaultSettings.php?annotate=13518
Line 983 : $wgEnotifUserTalk = false; # UPO

Now enabled where on the wikis where it's on.
