             Bug #: 30324
           Summary: AbuseFilter: blocking issues
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: any
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: AbuseFilter
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: wmdf...@gmail.com
                CC: agarr...@wikimedia.org, platoni...@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


Hello. When AbuseFilter blocks an user that triggers a filter, the filter does
not seem to allow talk page access so it's imposible for IP addresses blocked
to even appeal this automatic block. The fact that blocked users are not
allowed to use talk page access is not noted, either, in the block log but on
the Special:BlockList page. Please compare:

* BlockLog:
<http://es.wikibooks.org/w/index.php?title=Especial%3ARegistro&type=block&user=&page=User%3A201.241.168.102+&year=&month=-1&tagfilter=>

* IPBlockList entry: 00:28, 11 August 2011, Filtro antiabusos (Talk | contribs
| block) blocked 201.241.168.102 (Talk) (expires on 12 August 2011 at 00:28,
anon. only, account creation blocked, cannot edit own talk page) (Bloqueado
automáticamente por el filtro antiabusos. Descripción del filtro que se ha
disparado: Vandalismo corriente #1) (unblock | change block)

So in the block log appears that the IP is hardblocked (the "block anonymous
users only" box unchecked) and that talk page access is allowed. Yet, on the
BlockList the IP appears blocked with anonymous users only, account creation
disabled and talk page blocked.

The filter should hardblock IPs but allow talk page access. The
"angry-autoblock" for IPs makes no sense.

As for registered users: account creation blocked, autoblock and angry
autoblock, but talk page access allowed.

Hope that its clear otherwise please ask. Maybe this can help
