Description

We currently have the case of some GB members being listed under their official names on the GB page but the same members appear as sponsors on the WG page using nicknames.

I think this is not ideal; it should be easy to understand who is who.

@deepbluev7 opinion?

Research direction

Compare the official names on the GB page with the nicknames shown for the same people as WG sponsors and members on the WG page. Start by locating those two pages in the matrix.org website, identify the mismatched entries, and update the displayed names so each person is consistently identifiable. Done means the relevant GB and WG listings use matching names.
