  Great we don't need to be concerned with that then. (for now / for this 
ticket)

`zh_classicalwiki` and ` be_x_oldwiki` are the only problematic cases in the

more to consider/include?

<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:SiteMatrix>, the rest are `cbk-zam` 
(-> `cbk_zamwiki`), `bat-smg`, `fiu-vro`, `map-bms`, `nds-nl`, `roa-rup`, 
`roa-tara`, `zh-min-nan`, `zh-yue` but we don't need to keep a hard-coded list, 
just the rule of `-` -> `_`

`be_x_oldwiki`) but if this is resolved, I assume more will follow. IIRC, 
`zh-classical` (to `lzh`), `no` to `nb` and another of Chinese wikis will be 
renamed (but that's for the future)
  
  If `-` -> `_` is to be a general path for aliases then I think the 
description needs to be updated to reflect that.
  Currently reading the task description I would assume this this is just a 
list of ID 1 -> ID2 for example.
  Having something generic like `-` -> `_` also open up the question of should 
this happen on other wikibases (probably not by default), this this type of 
replacement would also need to be done in a generic way.
  @Ladsgroup mind having a go at updating the ACs etc to reflect that?
  
  I believe that would be the only remaining open point.
