The fact that mediawiki's repository is named "mediawiki-core" doesn't make sense to me. The chief benefit provided by GitHub is its popularity and visibility. We don't manage our code review or release process in GitHub anyway, so I see no reason not to give the most weight to aesthetic / populistic considerations. Let's make it github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki. Visibility helps!

This is not possible. Repos are the same name on the source and destination.

Not to mention that might be confusing down the road for someone looking to find our copy of mediawiki-core on Github.
