Previous batch uploads were usually normalising names with the following
(which I think is less stringent)
> def cleanUpTitle(title):

> """ Clean up the title of a potential mediawiki page. Otherwise the title of

> title = title.strip()
> title = re.sub(u"[<{\\[]", u"(", title)
> title = re.sub(u"[>}\\]]", u")", title)
> title = re.sub(u"[ _]?\\(!\\)", u"", title)
> title = re.sub(u",:[ _]", u", ", title)
> title = re.sub(u"[;:][ _]", u", ", title)
> title = re.sub(u"[\t\n ]+", u" ", title)
> title = re.sub(u"[\r\n ]+", u" ", title)
> title = re.sub(u"[\n]+", u"", title)
> title = re.sub(u"[?!]([.\"]|$)", u"\\1", title)
> title = re.sub(u"[&#%?!]", u"^", title)
> title = re.sub(u"[;]", u",", title)
> title = re.sub(u"[/+\\\\:]", u"-", title)
> title = re.sub(u"--+", u"-", title)

> title = title.replace(u" ", u"_")
> title = title.strip(u"_")
