## How it works
When issues/pull requests are being imported, the Bitbucket importer tries to find
-the Bitbucket author/assignee in GitLab's database using the Bitbucket ID. For this
-to work, the Bitbucket author/assignee should have signed in beforehand in GitLab
-and **associated their Bitbucket account**. If the user is not
-found in GitLab's database, the project creator (most of the times the current
-user that started the import process) is set as the author, but a reference on
+the Bitbucket author/assignee in GitLab's database using the Bitbucket `nickname`. For this
+to work, the Bitbucket author/assignee should have their `nickname` match their Bitbucket
+`username`, signed in beforehand in GitLab and **associated their Bitbucket account**.

+current user that started the import process) is set as the author, but a reference on
