Summary: Hideuser: Error when trying to block hidden user without
hideuser right
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: Blocking
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: church.of.emacs...@gmail.com
Currently, it's a bit confusing for admins without hideuser right:
1. Admin sees EvilUsername
2. Oversight sees EvilUsername and is faster than the admin: He blocks
EvilUsername with hideuser
3. Admin goes to Special:Block/EvilUsername. There is a warning, that EvilUser
is "Already blocked", but the block log is empty.
4. Admin tries to block user and gets a strange error: "Error: could not submit
form" and "<hookaborted>".
Expected behavior: Nice error message saying the admin is not allowed to change
block settings as the user has been hidden.
