--- Comment #9 from Douglas Gardner <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Jared Zimmerman (WMF) from comment #8) > [I]s this interface mostly used to increase, or decrease the > block timespan? That would presumably depend on the wiki, or indeed the blocking user. I'm not sure we can really make assumptions on how the interface is used. I suppose one /could/ make some JavaScript to change the button as the user edits the fields, but that's probably taking it rather too far. Thinking about it, having the button change color suddenly might be jarring: it is literally the same form, so an admin could feasibly: 1. Visit [[Special:Unblock]] 2. Type in the name of an already blocked user, and other details 3. Click the destructive "block user" button (page reloads) 4. Check the newly-appearing "confirm block" checkbox 5. Click the now constructive/neutral "amend user" button [Although: there are other, perhaps more common, ways to access the "amend" form directly (e.g. [[Special:Block/10.11.12.13]], through the toolbox on user pages), in which case the button would be the second color from the get-go.] Neutral feels like the wrong choice though, it *is* submitting data and performing an action; it's not something passive. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
