Description Stefan A. 2009-12-23 13:27:29 UTC
Hello..

When deleting a watched page, the User (watcher) gets no notification. However, if the User checks "notify me on minor edits" (my translation, i'm german) in the preferences, the user gets an e-mail. This is counter-intuitive.

Moreover, the Email-text is confusing and just wrong. Mediawiki:Enotif-body is used and it states that this is a new Page and it was recently created, however, it was deleted.

This does not seem to apply to wikipedia, because this feature is disabled, but in standard-mediawiki-software it is present.

Greetings,
Stefan
