Topic on Extension talk:MassMessage

Re: $wgNamespacesToPostIn = array( NS_PROJECT, NS_USER_TALK ); - I'd suggest changing that, if it's the default example that gets installed, to include NS_PROJECT_TALK, as messages are often sent to WikiProject talkpages.

Future-feature-request: Perhaps the "Preview" could give an indication if any of the #targets are going to be converted?

(I've updated the Help:Extension:MassMessage#Creating a page list guide to specifically note that "Any messages targeted to "User:Foo" will be automatically converted/sent to "User talk:Foo" - but you might want to rewrite it.)

Other than that, my tests at testwiki went great :)

I wonder if we should just enable all talk pages by default. The namespace restriction was mainly so that the bot doesn't accidentally (or maliciously) dump messages

There's currently a bug somewhere for displaying more information on preview, but we can only show namespace switching if the target is on a local wiki.

Thanks for updating the help page!

Enabled all talk pages by default in gerrit:94698.

...on the English Wikipedia. WikiProjects don't really exist anywhere else. (I've no objection to including both.)

Yes they do. Some wikis even have a separate namespace for them: d:User_talk:Legoktm/namespaces#wikiproject :)
