Description Tim Landscheidt 2014-01-29 17:29:20 UTC 
MediaWiki uses underscores and spaces for user names pretty much interchangeably.  However, Special:NovaProject&action=addmember insists on usernames with spaces.  When you copy & paste the username from a URL it has underscores and for rtl languages replacing it manually requires a lot of patience :-) (cf. https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:NovaProject&action=addmember&projectname=tools&member=%D8%B9%D8%B1%D9%81%D8%A7%D9%86_%D8%A7%D8%B1%D8%B4%D8%AF).

So Special:NovaProject&action=addmember should transform any underscores to spaces before using the username.
