Requesting tools:Block

Task tool(s) will be used for: I offten use Huggle to fight vandalsim. I would like to use this tool to block vandals directly insted of constantly reporting them to WP:AIV

Description of your experience in the area in which you plan to use the tool: I have about 6 months experience with Huggle and longer fighting vandalism with Twinkle. I have become familiar with the blocking policy during time (ie: How long blocks should be and when and who they should be issued to).

Other notes:I feel that the abilaty to block editors will relive work load on admins and help me to improve Wikipedia at a quicker rate as I can block vandals imdeiatly after their 5th strike (4 warnings then the next vnadal edit is a block) or in other situations when a block would be required (eg: 3 revert rule).Also, editors may see that I have a 24 hour blovk in my log. This was issued within hours of me joining Wikipedia when I had not read the policy pages. I have now turned around and become a useful editor in the field of vandalism fighting.
