So why did I not ever wontfix this?  Doing so now...  At some pint we might
want to try 'fixing' those bad entries but that is another bug entirely.

Fair enough. Any guess what led to these particular revisions having
out-of-sequence revision IDs, and user_text of '0'? I know there is some weird
stuff with old imported revisions, but the revisions showing this behavior seem
to have be made around the same time as others which look 'normal'. I can work
around this particular case, but curious if I'm missing something more general.

Gah, these are from 2002, who knows what the code was like then (phase2)
we'll have to ask someone who's been around a lot longer for the answer to
that.

Might be as well RESOLVED WONTFIX (against investigating this problem) *if*
this problem hasn't also happen in more recent dumps.

The question really is:

Are there revisions for which the user_text field for the revision is not zero
but Export.php produces 0 for the username?  I have not heard of any yet, so I
would close this until someone reports one.

Closing is fine with me. I just scanned through the entire enwiki dump, and
found no instances more recent than July 2002. So this looks like ancient
database wonkiness rather than a bug in Export.php.

An intriguing regularity, for whatever it's worth: the revision just *after*
the wonky revision is always one that was made in a narrow date range around
July 20-24, 2002. So I would guess there was something weird going on that week
with the database or code. That's enough evidence, anyway, to convince myself
that it was a one-off thing I can work around by just using the user id for
those revisions.

--- Comment #1 from Ariel T. Glenn ar...@wikimedia.org ---
The reason that the user name is '0' in the second revision is that in the
database the user_text field for that row in the revision table is indeed 0.

While a human looking at this could make the reasonable guess that the user who
edited the second revision is the same as the one who edited the first one, it
is possible for usernames to change, even during a given run.  Thus, during
export no guesses are made about attribution.
