* Move the unique autonyms test to the "autonyms" section It was in the "redirects" section, and it makes much more sense for it to be in the "autonyms" section. * Case-insensitive test for unique autonyms Autonyms for some languages are very similar or even identical, but they should be unique in this system so that users would be able to find the correct language unambiguously. It's conceivable that someone (including myself) would add an autonym that will be different only in its usage of capital letters. This change modifies the test for unique autonyms so that such cases would be prevented. --------- Co-authored-by: SrishAkaTux <ssethi@wikimedia.org>
