Hello,
Last year there where a lot of discussions about projects inside wikimedia
that needed to be renamed. The last thing I can remember is that it wasn't
possible at that time. However I would like to know if something changed
since the last discussion?
There are like 5 or 6 projects under discussion that /could/ be renamed, so
the question remains: Is it possible?
Anything's possible, the question is whether it's worth doing,
considering the complexity of the task and the size of the shell
requests backlog.
I don't think it's worth doing if someone with root access has to do
everything manually. But if some interested developer wrote a script
to do the bulk of the tasks, and documented the procedure for the rest
of the tasks, then I think these requests could be processed.
