Description
UserNames, a portion of which are a WikiName are not matched in Group lists.
Steps to reproduce
If necessary, create a user with a delimiter in the user name such that a portion of the name looks like a WikiName. For example 'John-PaulJones' or 'User McLeod'.
- Add the user to some Group page in the normal way. e.g.
* John-PaulJones * User McLeod
- Switch to that user and visit some page that has rights for that group.
The user will not have the rights of the group.

Discussion
This actually may be the expected behavior. There is mention of the link syntax in the section on 'defining' in HelpOnGroups, but no explicit mention that this is required for names of the problem form. Perhaps only a note about that in HelpOnGroups is all that's required. -- MarkSapiro 2016-04-17 17:20:58
