You see, although a user may have never joined a wiki, they still will receive a notification if a user messages them on a talk page or message wall regardless of what wiki this message is on.

It is why the automated staff messages that you receive when you found a wiki tell you not to reply to them, because the staff members will receive your replies if you do, and that might flood their inboxes with the sheer number of wikis being created. i factored that into my response but a user may simply ignore a message sent to them from a wiki that they have never joined that is why the best option is to simply announce it in a blog
