Question[edit]

Latest comment: 8 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

How global locks works. And about the message on top of the contribution page saying "This account is globally locked. See global account details for more information", how is this achieved? Toadette (chat) 10:13, 26 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Like when a user, who is blocked, knowingly tries to edit from other IPs to extend the autoblock to other users? I think that's a niche enough case that we don't need to add that here, and it can be resolved at the local level. – Ajraddatz (talk) 16:01, 11 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
