There was code that tried to make the button with the bell in the top right not be displayed on Special:Notifications on mobile, but it didn't fully work. Instead of preventing the button from appearing, it sabotaged it so that the number wouldn't appear.

I've fixed this code so that the bell button now doesn't appear on the special page at all, which was apparently the intent to begin with. If anyone objects, we can make it appear (and be fully functional) instead, but I think this makes more sense. It also avoids sync problems between the notifications list you see when you click the bell, and the one on the special page itself.

Catrope moved this task from Untriaged to QA Review on the Collaboration-Team-Triage (Collab-Team-Q2-Oct-Dec-2016) board.Nov 24 2016, 4:02 AM

Per Elena's comment on Nov 28, this seems fixed? Not sure why @jmatazzoni moved this from Product Review to the Triage board instead of closing it, that's a strange move.

It is now too old to be announced.
