Revoking and restoring autopromote groups to users triggering filters ain't logged
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

AbuseFilter can, through the 'block autopromote' setting, revoke the autoconfirmed status of any user that triggers a filter. That status can be restored through Special:AbuseFilter/tools, however that operation is not logged anywhere.

For transparency, I feel this should be logged in the AbuseLog. Something like:

  • 00:00, 1 January 2013: Administrator (talk | contribs | block) restored the autoconfirmed status to Example (talk | contribs | block)

Thanks.

Actually, the revocation isn't logged as well.

I'm looking at this, and also trying to overhaul blockautopromote. It makes no sense to perform a random block, so I'll just hardcode it to a fixed amount.
