The Community Tech team at the Wikimedia Foundation is pushing a fix to a 
longstanding issue regarding block notices for users on mobile devices. A year 
ago, if a blocked user attempted to edit a page from their mobile device, a 
notice popped up for just a few seconds before automatically disappearing, 
giving most people insufficient time to read it. Moreover, if the reason for a 
block contained a wikilink or a template, the notice would fail to render the 
link, instead displaying raw HTML. This led to botched notifications that 
looked as bad as this: 
.

I’m happy to see that a fix is almost ready to be deployed which addresses many 
issues, including rendering links properly. :)

2018-05-09 Thread Samuel Klein 
This is being discussed in detail on listadmins@wikimedia -- all list
admins should consider joining that v. low-traffic list.

I hope we can find a solution other than banning the entire aol network...
We should let aol know as well.

I take it back, we're now having the same issue with the Wikipedia-Library
mailing list, and the edit filter mailing list spam has resumed. Is this
happening on every list?
