Description Gerard Boyers 2010-11-05 18:12:38 UTC 
As outlined [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:UserMailer.php here], line 482 in UserMailer.php is the following:

 $adminAddress = new MailAddress( $wgPasswordSender, 'WikiAdmin' );

This causes all default installations to have "WikiAdmin" as the from name for watchlist changes. Changing it is possible, but is wiped out with upgrades. 

Could this be turned into a simple $wg variable? Or take it from $wgSiteName unless otherwise specified?
