Here is an (untested) solution via WikiSh, as it would be typed into the
control panel:
for i in BBaCommunity.*
do
mv ${i} ${i#BBa}
done
If you have a large number of pages in this group and a relatively slow
server then you may need to work with a subset of files (BBaCommunity.[A-M]*
and then BBaCommunity.[N-Z]* in a second run or something akin to that).
Note that this will rename BBaCommunity.BBaCommunity to
Community.BBaCommunity -- the group is renamed, but not the page.
As always with any action on a large number of pages it would be wise to
back up first and perhaps test it on a test group of 3-4 pages first.
