Description Mr. Stradivarius 2014-08-04 21:52:28 UTC
Today I had a talk page message from someone who was mistakenly logged out. I revision-deleted the username from the message, and the username was later oversighted. Now when I go to [[Special:Notifications]] I see the message "(Username or IP removed) left a message on your talk page." In this message, the text "(Username or IP removed)" is linked to the page [[User:(Username or IP removed)]].

Instead of linking to a non-existent user, we should either just not link the text, or better, have a custom message like "A user whose username or IP was removed left a message on your talk page."
