It should be possible to define skin-minerva-blocked-drawer-creator-header message based on the gender of a person who blocked the article.
It's impossible to translate "Blocked by" without resorting to a gendered verb in Serbo-Croatian, for instance.

@pmiazga: I was referring to the gender preference of the block creator, whose username is displayed right below this header. It's impossible to translate "Blocked by" without resorting to a gendered verb in Serbo-Croatian, for instance.

Given this requires a specific knowledge of how gender in language i18n works and a specific technical setup (setting up a block), getting this tested is overly complicated and IMO not worth it. Thus, I think it's safe for this to skip QA and design review. I can confirm that "GENDER" does not show up in the resulting message so this means it is being parsed correctly (cc @alexhollender ).
@ovasileva over to you for either sign off or any questions.
@Srdjan_m please let us know if there's a problem with translating or how this displays in the interface.
@Srdjan_m could you verify the gender support. New version is available on Beta cluster - https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org
