◆ getLogPage()

MediaWiki\Block\BlockTarget::getLogPage ( )

abstract

Get the title to be used when logging an action on this block.

For an autoblock, the title is technically invalid, with a hash character in the DB key. For a range block, the title is valid but is not a user page for a specific user.

See also getUserPage(), which exists only for subclasses which relate to a specific user with a talk page.
