Example (inspect code using edit source) [[User:PirateCaptain]] or [[User:PirateCaptain|@PirateCaptain]] Make sure to sign the msg. Otherwise mentions do not work --[[User:PirateCaptain|PirateCaptain]] ([[User talk:PirateCaptain|talk]]) 19:14, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
'''Important:''' In order to get Email notifications make sure to turn on email notifications for mentions in the notification settings.
 
Mentioning someone that a notification is sent requires two steps
 
* Tag the User you want to mention in the following format  <nowiki>[[User:Username]]</nowiki> e.g. <nowiki>[[User:PirateCaptain]]</nowiki> 
* Sign the msg via the sign symbol next to the "I" in editing mode or includes 4 ~ to the end of the msg.
 
Tip: If you are really unsure how mentioning work create a secondary test account to test it by mentioning yourself.
