I was doing some cleanup on Debian usertags and I noticed that some 8 bugs were associated with the non-existent debian-m68k mailing list while 53 other m68k related bugs were instead associated with the debian-68k mailing list.

Thanks for cleaning this up!
Aaron M.Ucko (CCed) had filed a new m68k bug with the debian-m68k mailing list as the user. I contacted him and he mentioned that the official advice on the wiki says to use the debian-m68k list.
Yes, the wiki is unfortunately not always the best resource to rely on when it comes to these things in Debian. Currently the best way is to ask on the appropriate mailing lists.
https://bugs.debian.org/884467 https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Debbugs/ArchitectureTags The majority of folks using those tags have used debian-68k instead of debian-m68k, I don't think having a split between the two helps and I think it makes more sense to use the official list name. Does anyone have any opinion on standardising on debian-68k?
Yes, please standardize on debian-68k.
In addition, during my investigation, I noticed there are a number of bugs with usertags for the m68k-bu...@nocrew.org user. I wonder if it would also be a good idea to move those to debian-68k/debian-m68k?
Yes, please. I assume that m68k-bu...@nocrew.org is the historic mailing list for Debian's m68k porters. Christian will most likely know this.
Once there is consensus, I will be happy to update the wiki and move any of the bugs to the chosen user(s). user debian-m...@lists.debian.org usertags 405929 - m68k usertags 503383 - m68k usertags 880517 - m68k usertags 881736 - m68k usertags 882189 - m68k usertags 882452 - m68k usertags 882555 - m68k usertags 883038 - m68k usertags 884467 - m68k user debian-68k@lists.debian.org usertags 405929 + m68k usertags 503383 + m68k usertags 880517 + m68k usertags 881736 + m68k usertags 882189 + m68k usertags 882452 + m68k usertags 882555 + m68k usertags 883038 + m68k usertags 884467 + m68k
This is very much appreciated, thank you! Also, @Aaron: Thanks for filing these bug reports. But may I ask you to always to include X-Debbugs-CC with the appropriate porters mailing list? Then the people who are primarily interested in fixing the bugs (the porters) will get notified as well. Thus: User: debian-68k@lists.debian.org Usertags: m68k X-Debbugs-CC: debian-68k@lists.debian.org Thanks to everyone supporting Debian Ports! Much appreciated! Adrian -- .''`.
