Does any record remain from which it would be even theoretically possible to extract the actual uploaders of the images from before mid-2002 whose file history only lists "(Automated conversion)" as the uploader? How about those marked as uploaded by "Conversion script" with the summary "(recovered file, missing upload log entry)"?
These should appears on the old upload log pages...
Unfortunately all I can see at the moment is these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Upload_log
which only lists back to October 2002.
I've recovered some early logs from a March 2002 dump: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Upload_log_archive/January-March_2002
And some additional ones from an October 2002 dump: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Upload_log_archive/July_2002 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Upload_log_archive/August_2002 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Upload_log_archive/September_2002 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Upload_log_archive/October_2002
I don't seem to have anything covering late March through early July, though.
