Error Codes[edit]

Code Info
leparam_user User name username not found
leparam_title Bad title value 'title'
This happens when you set letitle to an invalid title.

Notes[edit]

For autoblock unblock entries, the page title is shown as "User:$blockid". This is indeed not a User page, just the way it is stored. As per bug 17781

Block

<block flags="nocreate" duration="3 days" expiry="2014-09-18T20:35:54Z" />
