When blocking a user parameters wpTarget, wpReason and wpExpiry can be specified using GET parameters. This doesn't work anymore for the other options (checkboxes) like wpCreateAccount and wpWatch. This used to be possible and is used in templates to specify sensible defaults (ex.: http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sjabloon:Infobalk_waarschuwingssjablonen and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Bot). To reproduce, visit http://test2.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Block&wpTarget=test&wpReason=Other&wpReason-other=test&wpExpiry=1+hour&wpCreateAccount=0&wpWatch=1. The first checkbox should be unchecked, the last should be set, but thats not the case.
Sounds like bug 30909 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 30909 ***
