  • This has resurfaced with another Author misunderstanding collaboration and potentially opening up a security hole with their script being edited by others. So at least we can check to see if the account(s) currently exists. They are still responsible for any unauthorized edits if they type the incorrect existing username.
  • Also fixes a feature with unhandled casing... probably best to leave it exact unlike URLs to user homepages. Really don't need different casings floating around in these labels i.e. symmetry.
