Jdforrester-PERSONAL added a comment to T216406: Rename `Image-reviewer` to `image-reviewer`, then migrate all its members.

All three migrated to support both image-reviewer and Image-reviewer (but note that #70 adds a tag that we'll probably want to rename too?). Should we fix filter #182 too, even though it's disabled?

What do you mean? The whole point of namespacing is that there aren't clashes…

I believe what @Peachey88 is referring to is conflicting usernames.

Each year's wiki was edited by a different collection of users who (up until recently, with SUL) had to sign up for the wiki independently of all past years. These usernames will have to be reflected in the edit histories of pages that are imported, whether the actual userpages are imported or not.

Note the individual wikis also have other "meta" pages like user pages; we should decide where we should we import them to.
