For example, today I re-enabled Tor and I tried creating a redirect. I was blocked with the normal Tor block pages regardless of whether I was going through secure.wikimedia.org or en; my account has been around for hundreds of days, has like 30k edits, rollback & move privileges and so on, so if I am understanding this right, I should've been able to create the page just fine.
Check Tim Starling's post to this thread, about 22 hours before yours. The functionality of overriding hard blocks has been disabled pending further discussion. The extension still (if I understand correctly) puts a soft block on any exits that haven't been manually blocked, but does nothing else at the moment.
