Description

I created a wiki family using the following test settings:

http://rafb.net/p/JICuAZ14.html

Then I tried to merge the only accounts (one default bureaucrat account on each wiki which is created upon installation of MediaWiki) which had the same username on both wikis. I ran migratePass0.php, but it only added "one" of the accounts (that on my enwiki) to centralauth database (localnames table).

It seems like migratePass0.php has to be run for each and every wiki in the wiki family once. There is no standard way to do this though.

Not sure how relevant it's here, but cannot access that anymore:

https://git.wikimedia.org/history/mediawiki%2Fextensions%2FCentralAuth.git/HEAD/maintenance%2FmigratePass0.php doesn't list many changes but only goes back to 2011 so not sure if some behavior was changed before already.

Hence wondering if still valid.

Yup. On wmf wikis we use the "foreachwiki" script.
