Summary: Checkuser mass blocker should "block e-mail" by
default
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: CheckUser
AssignedTo: jschulz_4...@msn.com
ReportedBy: ilya.schu...@gmail.com
Currently, checkuser mass blocker performs blocks on registered accounts with
option «account creation disabled». It is highly desirable that «e-mail
blocked» be turned on by default too. Checkuser massblocks in most cases are
used to fight with vandalism, and vandals often abuse e-mail features of
MediaWiki using accounts which are already blocked. So, in most cases, all
socks/vandal accounts should be blocked with "e-mail blocked" options, and now
it takes additional time to do that after massblocking manually.
This bug maybe related to bug 16306, but I believe it is much more simpler just
to change defaults, without any UI changes.
