'''Notifications''' (formerly known as '''Echo''', commonly called '''pinging''') is a system designed to inform users about new activity on Wikipedia in a unified way. It provides notifications to users for a number of events related to their account, including new talk page messages, edit reverts, mentions or links. It is intended to augment the [[Help:Watchlist|Watchlist]], by highlighting key user interactions.
