__NOTOC__

In the NavBox I am noticing that when I am trying to get the contribs of users the ''User contributions'' tab does not consistently work. [[User_talk:Maxderungs| From this page]] I am unble to click ''User contributions'' in the NavBox; yet I know that the user has made [http://www.aboutus.org/Special:Contributions/maxderungs edits]. I think the problem is related to case space issues user name is lower case and the user page name is upper case. See: [[User:Susanandshawn]] and [http://www.aboutus.org/Special:Contributions/susanandshawn the page of contribs].

Example 1
When I click contribs I get taken to
: http://www.aboutus.org/Special:Contributions/Susanandshawn
and the contribs don't show up

They actually do show up here:
: http://www.aboutus.org/Special:Contributions/susanandshawn

Example 2
This is also creating a problem when we try to block users:
: http://www.aboutus.org/index.php?title=Special:Blockip&action=submit

: http://www.aboutus.org/Special:Contributions/nicolas_huose_cleaning

 Example 3 
:I have not been able to get to this user's contributions at all.
: http://www.aboutus.org/index.php?title=BerniceEdelman.com&action=history
: http://www.aboutus.org/Special:Contributions/jenna_ryan
: http://www.aboutus.org/Special:Contributions/Jenna_ryan

 Example 4 
: Case space confusion
: user made an edit to my talk page
: http://www.aboutus.org/index.php?title=User_talk:Kasey&action=history
: when I try to access the user's contribs off of the user's personal page, I get this:
: http://www.aboutus.org/Special:Contributions/Maxderungs
: I can get to the contribs by using the history, which only worka if you know of at least one page they have edited.
: http://www.aboutus.org/Special:Contributions/maxderungs

 * There are still around 200 users who map to the same casespace name.  compost/script/rename_user_duplicates.rb has renamed several thousand of them, but for some reason there are still 200 that can't be renamed.
 * For many lowercase users, the User: and User_talk: pages were created with uppercase names.  This is confusing when you click on contributions or block.
