Description MZMcBride 2013-04-02 04:27:49 UTC
If I block an account on test.wikipedia.org that has no user page, the block does not show up in Special:Watchlist. The block will not appear on Special:Watchlist regardless of whether I later add the user's user page to my watchlist or if I select the "watch this user's page" checkbox during the block submission.

If I create the user page after the account has been blocked, the block _still_ does not appear at Special:Watchlist. This may be a separate bug.

If the user page already exists when I block the account, I can watch or unwatch the user page at my discretion and the relevant block entry will appear at Special:Watchlist depending on whether I'm watching the user's user page. (This is the correct behavior.)

Cannot follow this:

Steps done for testing on current master:
* Add the user page to watchlist
* Go to Special:Block and block infinity
* Go to watchlist and see the block, even if the user page does not exist

If you can still see this problem on testwiki, than it sounds like a problem with a extension, which can is active on test.wikipedia.org and manipulate the query.
