Still looking for feedback?

Hi! I stumbled across this only recently and was thinking of providing feedback. Given that it has been a while since the feedback was initially requested, I was doubtful whether it would be useful if I share the feedback. So, do let me know if you're still looking for feedback.

Hi @Kaartic, we still welcome your input

Hi! Sorry for the delay again. Here are my answers in case they're helpful.

1) Discoverability Top-right corner. Variant A. Variant B - Variant C (both don't seem obvious at all)

2) Iconography Variant A - notifications Variant B - something similar the notices in desktop which shares the same icon Variant C - profile

3) Edits to my user talk page, Edit reverts, Mentions, User rights changes, Emails from other users, Structured Discussions, Failed login attempts, OAuth

4) The separation of "All" and "Mentions" is nice but distinguishing of notifications within "All" could be done better.

5) I would prefer "All" shown by default.

6)

  • D) Grouping of notifications (e.g. if someone received several “Thanks” for an article edit, should it be grouped)
  • C) A quick way to filter notifications by type (e.g. only show mentions)
  • B) A quick way to filter notifications by project (e.g. Wikipedia, Commons, Wikidata)
  • A) A quick way to filter notifications by the language of the wiki (e.g. Swedish Wikipedia, Korean Wikipedia)
  • I) Easy access to archived notifications
  • F) Better notification preferences, e.g. fine-tuning which notifications you receive (see question #7 below)
  • H) Customizable swipe left / swipe right actions (Example: Gmail → Settings → General settings → Mail swipe actions)
  • E) Search functionality for both new and archived notifications
  • G) Notifications for the watchlist

7) Failed login attempt, Emails from other users, Structured Discussions. I'm not sure if any of these are already covered under "System".

8) If it is possible to see the complete information by scrolling the page, then I feel the approach is a good one. But it might introduce doubt as to where the reply would be added in the conversation. It would be nice if that could be communicated in some way.

9) "Thanks", "Thank you", "Support"

10) Yes, I’d love to see this functionality.
