Accessing blocking reason/admin at MediaWiki:Cantcreateaccounttext
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description:
Hi guys,

At [[MediaWiki:Blockedtext]], we have access to the following three variables:

$1 = IP address of the current user
$2 = Reason why that user or IP is blocked
$3 = Blocking administrator

while [[MediaWiki:Cantcreateaccounttext]] only provides $1. Could you please
make $2 and $3 available there too so we can streamline our processing of
account creation requests at unblock-en-l.

Thanks,

Andrew Lau

This isn't really a bug, but it could use developer assistance.

The sensible thing is probably to just use the same block-reporting message.
