Details

Set $wgBlockAllowsUTEdit to true to allow blocked users to edit their talk pages (so that they can request unblocking, for example). This will add an "Editing own talk page" checkbox on Special:Block, unchecked by default (see Manual:Block and unblock). If it's set to false, the checkbox disappears.
