Stupid example
Example of userinfo query is stupid, because it doesn't show the output, for example, of information about block status, if you aren't blocked -_-. KPu3uC B Poccuu 14:43, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't see the problem here. The example for the example for the userinfo meta query doesn't request the  property so it obviously is never shown. Also note that even if you request , the response will only contain such property if the user in question actually is blocked. Krinkle 22:44, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
 * What I asked is just put here examples of all possible options for users which haven't access to sysop tools to figure it out themselves. KPu3uC B Poccuu (talk) 12:15, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Block status is not private information. It's openly visibly to anyone, not just to users who have access to sysop tools. For example commons:User:Shake Away is blocked. and this information can be seen in many places: Special:Contributions/(username), [ Special:Log/block?page=User:(username)], [//commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=users&ususers=Shake%20Away&usprop=blockinfo&format=jsonfm api.php list=users&ususers=(username)]. And, if you're logged in as a blocked user, also on [//www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=query&meta=userinfo&uiprop=blockinfo api.php?action=query&meta=userinfo&uiprop=blockinfo].
