Sorry if I did not catch your message right, but blocks performed by the AbuseFilter are already logged at Special:Log/block as regular blocks are.

Huji renamed this task from AbuseFilter: adding sysop's name which blocked to AbuseFilter's log to Add a last_blocked_by variable to AbuseFilter.Jul 20 2017, 12:53 PM

@MarcoAurelio I retitled the task to make it clearer. What Yamaha5 is asking for is to to know if that last time a user was blocked (if ever) was by the AbuseFilter account or by another account (i.e. a sysop). I am not sure of what use case he has in mind though.

I think this is technically not easy right now, because of T68961 so I am going to mark that as a blocker for this.

Another thing to take into account is that, as far as I could see, there isn't a method from User class to get last blocks (there's only for current ones).
