Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):
- Have a user account
- Do not have had your useraccount autocreate at the shared repository yet
- Be on an IP address that is blocked against autocreation on the shared repository
- Log in to the Wikipedia mobile app
- Try to edit Wikipedia
What happens?:
The app stops, wrongfully telling the user that:
a) their username is blocked
b) and that it is blocked ON Wikipedia
What should have happened instead?:
Unless they are attempting a write action to the shared repository, nothing should happen. If they do attempt a write to the shared repository they should get an appropriate block message from the remote project
Software version (skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):
