histories match pretty well.
Someone should reach out to "Wegmann" and find out if it is the same user
and offer to use Special:UserMerge to merge their users.

Changing all wiki usernames could be done with a slightly altered form of
the UserRename extension's "renameUser.php" script:

I'm willing to do that this weekend if you want.
