Typically a block log snippet is shown at Special:Contributions if the user is currently blocked. For example, at <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&dir=next&target=JarlaxleArtemis>: --- This account is currently blocked. The latest block log entry is provided below for reference: 20:16, 17 September 2006 Cyde (talk | contribs) blocked JarlaxleArtemis (talk | contribs) with an expiry time of indefinite (Re-instating the community ban.) View full log --- If &dir=prev is specified in the URL (by clicking "earliest" for example), then the block log snippet becomes wrong. For example, at <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&dir=prev&target=JarlaxleArtemis>: --- This account is currently blocked. The latest block log entry is provided below for reference: 20:55, 20 June 2005 Linuxbeak (talk | contribs) blocked JarlaxleArtemis (talk | contribs) with an expiry time of 24 hours (Disruption of Wikipedia despite warnings) View full log --- This is the first block entry, not the latest block entry, as the user interface currently incorrectly suggests.
Might be able to have a look at this over the weekend.
