Managing all wiki reminders
The Special:Reminder page is available to wiki administrators. It displays a list of all reminders for all sites and all users. Wiki admins can delete reminders here or edit the due date and other details. Users in the admin role can theoretically create reminders for other users. This ability should be used with caution, however, as users may not expect others to create reminders on their behalf.
Notifications
By default, users receive a notification in the wiki and via email 6 days before and on the due date. This behavior can be customized in the user preferences.
User preferences
- Default reminder period: Prefills the date field for reminders with current date + x days specified here.
- Set reminder on page creation: When you create a new page, a reminder for that page is automatically created based on the default reminder period.
- Do not create reminder for the following namespaces: Excludes namespaces from the automatic reminder if "set reminder on page creation" is activated.
