Managing all wiki reminders

The Special:Reminder page is available to wiki administrators. It displays a list of all reminders for all sites and all users. Wiki admins can delete reminders here or edit the due date and other details. Users in the admin role can theoretically create reminders for other users. This ability should be used with caution, however, as users may not expect others to create reminders on their behalf.

Notifications

By default, users receive a notification in the wiki and via email 6 days before and on the due date. This behavior can be customized in the user preferences.
