aude added a comment. This is because be-x-old is still in the wb_items_per_site table and other places in the database (e.g. the entity json blobs).
We need to figure out a migration strategy for this and such renames in general. This might include adding a new entry in the sites table with be_tarask as the site id and keeping the old id, but marking it somehow as inactive. When new site links are added, don't allow new site links to be_x_old(?) and don't allow there to be site links to both be_x_old and be_tarask? Have a maintenance script update existing site links to the new site id. In old revisions, we still have the old site id and everything (e.g. viewing diffs, etc.) still needs to work with it.
