* [[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.
* [[WP:MOREMENU|MoreMenu]] – Along with many other links, a link is provided to block a user while in their userspace on contributions page, and also indicates if the user is currently blocked. Other nifty links in regards to blocking include a link to the user's filter log, and WHOIS lookup links for IPs.
* [[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]]
