Description Quentinv57 2012-03-04 19:40:38 UTC
Hello.

I think this is a bug, as it worked earlier (maybe related to 1.19 but I've no real proof).

When an account is blocked locally on every wikis it exists, it should not be able to create automatically a new account on other wikis.

There's no real benefit if a guy who is blocked on every projects he has an account on creates one other account. If the guy has been blocked indefinitely, that's for a valuable reason. Somebody which is block on every projects he has an account on is far more likely to move to an other project to vandalize if the bug is not fixed.

Thanks by advance.

So in short you want a user locally blocked on all wikis to be automatically locked?

I'm not a huge fan of this idea. Why would that account just not be locked?
Comment 3 PiRSquared17 2014-02-27 21:58:56 UTC
I think this requires some discussion.  If an account exists on only one wiki, and is blocked there, it should not be locked.
Comment 4 Quentinv57 2014-02-28 17:36:36 UTC
Thanks for reopening the discussion.

This is no longer required, because this situation should not appear anymore. Every SUL account should have an account on loginwiki now and cannot be blocked here.

By consequence, I'm closing this bug as resolved.
