Edit request

Please ensure you follow our policies, especially TestWiki:Testing policy and TestWiki:Main policy, reverting every test administrative action in the reverse order performed. As a best practice, test blocks should be done on User:Example or yourself.

. Anton and Dmehus, will anyone of you please remove or yourself from the above text. I see if users block themselves they are unable to do anything even they can't unblock themselves. I experienced this when I blocked my alternative account (Olipino (Alt)) and when Theory of Eternity blocked themselves. What do you people think? – Olipino (talk) 13:37, 5 April 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I've seen admins unblock themselves on Recent Changes, so I think it is possible for blocked admins to unblock themselves. I don't have admin powers myself, otherwise I'd test that for myself. Theory of Eternity (talk) 13:50, 5 April 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Hi, Consul can remove the block from itself. Admins can't, to my knowledge. Thanks --Anton (talk) 13:57, 5 April 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Sorry, I was wrong. The admin can unblock himself (unblockself). Please see Special:ListGroupRights. Thanks. --Anton (talk) 14:05, 5 April 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Anton, let me test. – Olipino (talk) 14:09, 5 April 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Yes, what are you going to test? --Anton (talk) 14:10, 5 April 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Anton, sorry for talking your time, I'm closing this discussion because yes sysops can unblock themselves as listed at Special:ListGroupRights. I tested block on myself and yes, I could unblock myself. Thank you! – Olipino (talk) 14:15, 5 April 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
