Description Aphaia 2006-08-27 11:00:26 UTC
If you vote through Boardvote extention, you can vote either blocked or not. However on 
the Wikimedia Election convention disallow indefinitely blocked/banned users to vote. 
The lately proposed "written out of oral tradition" suggests also temporally 
blocked/banned users will be disable to vote too.

The requested feature will enforce this convention: if someone is blocked/banned from 
editing at the very moment of his or her voting at a certain wiki, he or she cannot 
vote. If this feature is on Both temporally blocked one and indefinitely blocked one 
cannot vote. The default value will be "yes". 

Ideally this will be implemented until the Wikimedia Board Election begins on September 
1, 2006, however it will be helpful even implemented after that, unless the Election 
convention is changed.
