             Bug #: 28550
           Summary: Logged out user gets Special:NewMessages
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: any
          Platform: All
               URL: http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:NewMessages
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Low
         Component: LiquidThreads
        AssignedTo: agarr...@wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: bugzilla.wikime...@publi.purodha.net
                CC: bhar...@wikimedia.org,
                    bugzilla.wikime...@publi.purodha.net
    Classification: Unclassified


A logged out users get Special:NewMessages shown.

I expect them to see an error page saying that they need to log in
so as to see their new messages, since without a user name,
there are likely no ways to determine whose individual
new messages are meant.

In the case of the URL above [0], I saw a thread [1] from a
subpage [2] of another page [3] that I am not watching in a
language which I do not understand.
