Stewards have been notified of a user trying to upload to Commons using the UploadWizard and they get through the upload and data entry phases to be blocked at the submission of the process. At that stage the error provided is non-standard / error from the api something or another ... (api-error-wikimedia-globalblocking-ipblocked) ... * Blocking that late in the process is problematic, and really unhelpful, is it possible to identify to the user that they are blocked earlier, eg. prior to an image upload. * That we cannot provide a standard block message with the IP blocked is completely unuseful and unhelpful. Can we please fix the call to provide the standard block message.
