Help:Notifications/FAQ

Notifications inform you of new activity that affects you on Wikipedia -- and let you take quick action.

Welcome to the Notifications FAQ page!

The Notifications tool (formerly code-named 'Echo') was released on the English Wikipedia on April 30, 2013. It aims to inform users about new activity on Wikipedia in a unified way and is designed to augment (rather than replace) the watchlist.

To customise which notifications you receive, go to the Notifications tab of your preferences. For tips on how to test this tool, see this testing page. Once you've tested Notifications, please join the discussion on this talk page. For more helpful tips, read below.
