bug 26089 addressed expiry info about a block, but we are still missing the timestamp of when the block was made
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=users&ususers=!&usprop=blockinfo&format=jsonfm perhaps call it blocktimestamp or something similar. and use the standard timestamp format 2004-12-04T19:39:42Z
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Ipblocks_table Db field: ipb_timestamp blocktimestamp seems like a sensible name Requires date formatting This information is already in the public log, so should be no risk or complication in exposing.
