Enabling subscribe action for lower headers for specifc pages (prefix)
- Problem: Subscribe action only works for level 2 headers
- Proposed solution: I would suggest enabling subscriptions for lower section levels for specific subpages. That is, for example, by defining some prefixes in the Mediawiki namespace that are an exception to the global rule. In such cases, the subscription would be possible, for example, only for the third level. Or all levels up to 3rd (whatever is easier to do).
- Who would benefit: I think most large wikis would. With Meta:Srg, you could only subscribe to your request, not the whole thing. Another use case is RfC on en.wiki, where now you can only subscribe to the main discussion section, and you would like to subscribe to only one subsection, but you can't. The same goes for many polls on pl.wiki (e.g. sysop rights vote (PUA)) which can go even deeper.
- More comments: I know one could migrate some pages up a level (make level 2, level 1 and so on). But this brakes some bots and gadgets and in other cases is not feasible at all (you would have to have 0-level heading).
