Hello, Karsten! I have used the importDump.php MW script and now I have revisions with "imported>SomeUser".


I would like to assign these revisions to a valid user. I see your comments here and I think you could help me with that issue. Is there a way to achieve that? I tried with


php maintenance/cleanupUsersWithNoId.php --prefix=* --assign=Jaider.ferreira


But no success.

I have resolved with the following SQL statement:


UPDATE revision

SET rev_actor = 1

WHERE `rev_actor` like "9" OR `rev_actor` like "10" OR `rev_actor` like "11";

I never used cleanupUsersWithNoId in conjunction with importDump, and I do not think it is meant for this. To avoid "imported>" users, you can create the accounts before importing with importDump and assign edits to existing local users. This only works for dumps with only a few users. Great, you found a way to change this after importing.
