Change Details

**User story:** As an interface administrator, I want to configure the username shown to users when Automoderator reverts an edit, so that it is localised and understandable to users on my wiki. ---- We want each Wikimedia project to be able to configure their own username for Automoderator, and we want the username to be localised. This spike is to help us understand if and how this might be possible. Wikidata has localisable edit summaries, which can be translated via TranslateWiki - this might be a sensible place to start the investigation. **Questions** [] Can we have Automoderator's username be localised? If so, how? [] Are there any drawbacks we should be aware of?
