Line 2: * [[WP:TW\|Twinkle]] – A comprehensive block+template tool. Allows you to choose a preset that auto-supplies the standard block duration, block summary, and template to issue to the user. You will see different presets and options when blocking IPs versus accounts. You can also use this gadget just to template the user and not block, and vice versa. If the user has been blocked in the past, a link to the block log will be shown. Also automatically disables a hard block when blocking bots. * [[User:Animum/EasyBlock\|EasyBlock]] – Block+template script with numerous options on types of blocks. This is quicker than Twinkle but does not allow you to choose block options. Many admins use both scripts. ** [[User:Amorymeltzer/easyblock-modern.js\|EasyBlock-modern]] – Same as the above, but tweaked to work on the Modern skin. * [[User:Timotheus Canens/massblock.js\|massblock]] – Block multiple users at once. Use with caution! * Note you can also block while patrolling recent changes with [[WP:HG\|Huggle]]. ===WHOIS=== Line 12 ⟶ 13: ===Range blocks=== ====Caclulatring a range====▼ ====General information==== * [[mw:Help:Range blocks]], help on MediaWiki * [[mw:Help:Range blocks/IPv6]], IPv6 help ▲====~~Caclulatring~~Calculating a range==== * [http://nativeforeigner.com/calc NativeForeigner's range calculator] * [[:toolforge:galaxybots/iprangecalculator\|Easy IP range calculator ]] on Toolforge * [[toollabs:blockcalc\|Rangeblock-Calculator]] on labs * [http://www.subnet-calculator.com/cidr.php Subnet-calculator.com] * [http://www.gestioip.net/cgi-bin/subnet_calculator.cgi Gestioip.net] ====Checking range contributions==== Range contributions are now supported in MediaWiki core.
