I have started getting a bunch of notifications about older topics I’ve been involved in on meta because @riking is graciously improving their titles, moving them to new categories, adding/removing tags etc. I really appreciate him doing this and do think it’s important for moderators to feel free to make improvements like this. It’s all part of the gardening involved in running great forums. But I don’t see why I should be notified. The same is true on my own discourse sites of course. The feature that I’d like to request is a setting to enable/disable notifications when post is moved, renamed or tagged. This could be sitewide in admin, similar to the “Disables edit notifications by the system user when ‘download\_remote\_images\_to\_local’ is active” option, or on the user preferences for each user and on by default. A related issue is that moving, renaming and adding tags indeed does bump up these old topics in topic listings, giving them prominence they don’t require. Another approach would be to bring back the “minor edit” idea discussed last year, which allows you to tick a box to indicate that this change is so minor it doesn’t warrant notification.

This is exacerbated by the way we started out using our forum which was to turn on email sending of all notifications for all of our 50+ staff using our forum. This means that, for example, when a post is moved to another topic an email is sent out to 50+ people because it is a new reply to that topic. We know they will start getting too much email and are starting to enco… --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/provide-option-to-disable-notifications-when-post-moved-renamed-tagged/26027)._
