After blocking a user, show a link to their global contributions page
Open, Needs TriagePublicFeature

Description

Feature summary:

The "Block added" dialogue (see screenshot) on (for example):

https://species.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Block/Chromeheartsk

Screenshot 2026-07-27 124832.png (1,750×600 px, 91 KB)

should include a link to the blocked user's global contributions page:

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:GlobalContributions/Chromeheartsk

Use case(s):

After blocking a vandal or spammer, I need to check that the behaviour has not (as is often the case) been repeated on sibling projects. This currently requires two clicks.

Benefits:

Quicker responses to cross-wiki abuse and reduced fatigue for admins.

without the "Block added" dialogue, it might be better if the link were on that page itself.
