I don't see why it's so important, however. Perfectionism is one thing, but this is beyond that.

I have non White_Cat accounts that I want renamed to the proper name. It isn't possible to merge accounts. I also want to make sure the IW links are properly done. Currently these two issues are not addressed.

that the account White_Cat on those sites is the same as global user:White_Cat.

I have contribution on those wikis I'd like to be attributed which is
why
I'd like my global account to extend to these wikis. You cannot just go delete a wiki just because you exported its content to the incubator. Accounts are not exported you see.

Yes, private wikis are not included in CentralAuth. The creation of

I'm under the impression that the closed wikis will be removed from
the
central soon, so no need to 100 percent merge. I would posit there
is
no need for a global group in this case.
