https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgBlockAllowsUTEdit – You have to change the wiki's configurations to allow blocked users to use their talk pages. By default, blocked users can't use their talk pages. I hope that no one here blocked people while assuming that they could request to become unblocked on their talk pages when they actually can't. [http://wikiindex.org/index.php?title=Template:Unblock&action=history Unfortunately, it looks like the people here have made that assumption]. Haven't you noticed that [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Unblock|nearly no one ever requests to be unblocked]]? If you're planning to keep the default configuration, then you keep to set expiration dates for blocks, since users can only speak once they're unblocked again. Unless you change the configurations, then infinite blocks should be done away with. --[[User:Michaeldsuarez|Michaeldsuarez]] ([[User talk:Michaeldsuarez|talk]]) 20:21, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
