Some messages are getting messages like this:
(username redacted) left a message on your talk page in "footer".
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=663446063 is an example. Perhaps 'footer' is the default for any section whose name can't be determined?

Mentioned at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Notifications#New_messages_link (permalink):
For the past few days, whenever I click on the "you have new messages" link, I am sent to User_talk:Nikkimaria#footer, no matter where on the page the new message happens to be. Previously the link went to the actual section containing the new message, which was far preferable. Has this changed for everyone, and if so can we change it back?
