* Text overflow is an absolute mess.

* Can't open threads anymore (link points to the wrong page, it points to the host page).

* No way to open a stand-alone page anymore (the old "My new messages" link to the special page is gone, and there way I can discover to point to a linkable list and/or a no-js fallback)

* No way to mark individual notifications as read. When I clicked the link, it opened this overlay and a second later the *10* badge was gone. Previously I could go through individual messages.

So apparently there is an "All notifications.." link somewhere in the overflow mess. Though that Special page is as broken as the overlay + :

* It renders titles inconsistently. Sometimes the title is a link to the host page, sometimes the title is unlinked and the name of the host page becomes a link (see attachment, the bottom one has a title with no link and the hostpage is linked, the top 2 are the other way around).

* Special:Watchlist still says "✒ There are new messages for you." pointing to Special:NewMessages, which is apparently kept out of the loop.

This can't be a replacement yet.

Special:NewMessages, this is bug 41808

We're turning Echo off on MediaWiki.org for now. It's just too early for it to be on a production site. There are also issues with it interfering with existing email notifications.
Comment 7 Andrew Garrett 2012-11-10 15:05:33 UTC
This bug is not actionable because:
* It has unhelpful language like "broken" and "less capable" and "absolute mess".
* It addresses a large number of issues, which should be filed as separate bugs.

I am opening new bugs for the actionable items.

I couldn't find those (the last point is not addressed by bug 41808 because that was WONTFIX'ed).
