MarcoAurelio added a comment to T60858: Split up blockedtext into different messages for username block, and IP block and for an IP range block.

I came to file a task to request this. While we may lose customisation for a brief while, it is not that hard to fix and to the contrary it can be benefitial to give specific instructions to the blocked users depending on whether they're personally blocked (account), or it's their IP or IP range, by further customising them if needed. Unregistered contributors can be given specific instructions on how to appeal their IP (range)blocks using the appropriate workflows, and the same goes for registered contributors where usually the path does change a bit depending on the wiki.

MarcoAurelio closed T156584: Full UserMerge support for WMF wikis as Declined.

Declining because UserMerge is being undeployed from WMF wikis (T216089: Undeploy UserMerge Extension from WMF production), making this task unactionable.

MarcoAurelio closed T131924: Babel configuration for uz.wikipedia as Resolved.

@Kaganer Done as requested. Now userpages using {{#babel}} will be categorised in both, User $lang and User $lang-$level (if they do not display yet, purging the page via ?action=purge does the trick).
