Description Carl Fürstenberg 2008-05-05 01:30:53 UTC 
There should be an option to add blocked people to ones watchlist when you are blocking them.
Comment 1 Chad H. 2008-05-05 20:52:13 UTC 
I started playing around with this in IPBlockForm::doBlock(). I'm having trouble finding a quick way to grab the Title object for the userpage of the person you're blocking though, as User::addWatch() requires a Title object to watch.
Comment 2 Aryeh Gregor (not reading bugmail, please e-mail directly) 2008-05-05 23:45:38 UTC 
User::getUserPage()?
Comment 3 Chad H. 2008-05-06 00:33:37 UTC 
Works for the current $wgUser, yes. There's not necessarily a user object for the blocked user. Is if you're blocking a logged in user, but not an anonymous one.
Comment 4 Aryeh Gregor (not reading bugmail, please e-mail directly) 2008-05-06 00:42:11 UTC 
Why can't you get a User object for an anonymous user?

Patch against r34306

Implement "watchlist this user" on [[Special:Blockip]]. Adds new system message ipbwatchuser for the label.
Comment 6 Aryeh Gregor (not reading bugmail, please e-mail directly) 2008-05-06 13:44:22 UTC 
Werdna seems to have applied this with r34307.
