===Problem:===
The [[https://patchdemo.wmflabs.org/wikis/77cda30f9d/wiki/Talk:Main_Page | current prototype ]] for topic subscriptions includes a text treatment for subscribing to topics, however, ideally this would be replaced with an intuitive icon treatment. Previous attempts (such as Flow) at creating an affordance for this chose to use a star icon. While we could use this same treatment, we need to consider that the star is currently used on wiki to suggest Watchlist subscriptions. One of the reasons that this worked for Flow was that Flow allowed for topic subscription management through the watchlist, however we are not going that route.

===User Story===
**As a** junior contributor
**When I **want to subscribe to a topic being discussed
**I will **click this on icon
**so that I can** receive notifications about conversation updates.
===Possible Solutions:===
- Keep the star.
- Use a text treatment.
- Design a new icon.
