Sorry I'm very busy nowadays so I'm not sure when I would have time for this. :(

The above now-abandoned patch actually does implement this but we do not want to do it without migrating to the current log formatter system, it cannot be done easily.

You need to enter the page's title only, not the full URL in the form field.
ssh username@newsletter-test.newsletter.eqiad.wmflabs cd /srv/mediawiki-vagrant vagrant ssh mysql wiki
and then run the DROP TABLE for the newsletter tables.

Global IP block exempts doesn't exempt you from local blocks on all wikis; rather it exempts you from actual "global blocks". In this case, 8.37.225.0/24 is locally blocked on English Wikipedia so even if you have a global block exempt right, it doesn't let you bypass the local block.

This is also causing all IP ranges to appear as globally blocked in Special:Block too (under other blocks) due to the wrong query being run.
After updating core, I am able to reproduce locally. Something seems to have changed the behavior of IP::toHex()(?) so it now returns false instead of empty string.
SELECT * FROM `globalblocks` WHERE (gb_range_start like '%') AND (gb_range_start <= 0) AND (gb_range_end >= 0) AND (gb_expiry > '20161007152532') ORDER BY gb_timestamp DESC LIMIT 2

Weird. This is the query which it's supposed to do on that page but it doesn't return any result on labs.
MariaDB [centralauth_p]> SELECT * FROM `globalblocks` WHERE (gb_range_start like '%') AND (gb_range_start <= '') AND (gb_range_end >= '') AND (gb_expiry > '20161007150458') ORDER BY gb_timestamp DESC LIMIT 2; Empty set (0.01 sec)
I don't remember this happening previously but this patch has been live on the projects since 2014.

We could probably remove the submit button at the top and just have a submit button at the bottom like other normal forms. That might make people do some more scrolling when there's a huge list of pages but they should be reviewing the list anyway before doing a deletion. ;-)
@Huji The point of this task is to get rid of storing log text in the CU table.. If the log text is stored (instead of type, params etc.), then we would have the issues we are currently having. See the subtasks. Or maybe you meant something else?
Sep 12 2016
I can also see the issues with having a separate formatting system but are we sure that data that is going to be inserted in CU will always have a corresponding log table entry? How should cases such as GlobalRename (T131207) be handled?

Probably LinksDeletionUpdate is not run because of this

Hmm, this is not just for translatable pages. Normal pages are also like this. Maybe I'm wrong but I don't remember this being like this previously.
Okay, please re-open if you find any issues.
I can reproduce this locally. Stacktrace:

That might work for things which use the normal logging table but won't work for others which doesn't make use of it like AbuseFilter, GlobalRename (T131207) and possibly others. (AbuseFilter's insertion of CU entries is also kind of hackish).

Can this be closed now?

This was fixed several months ago. It didn't actually insert a new block - just adds a new log entry. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/247617/

T51898 and this is now fixed on Translate side. You would need to remove the English $wgTranslateBlacklist entry on your wiki for it to work properly.
T124013: Do not allow saving translations to blacklisted language codes has also been fixed so it won't be possible to make these edits through normal edit page as well.
