wagtail.io, a Django/Python CMS, lists NASA as one of its users ... but is not mentioned in the article. The article says the migration was from Drupal to WP. Was that just fake news on wagtail.io?

I can't speak about wagtail.io specifically, but a lot of "used by..." sections on websites are based on email signups.
For example, if I run a SaaS and someone @nasa.gov signs up to try it out, I can then list NASA as one of my users, even if they just tested it and never put it into production.
And lose respect from anyone with an inking of common sense. Nobody cares about who you’ve demoed your software to. People care about who is using it. Marketing like this and the people that choose to do it are the absolute worst.
(I recently spoke to some of the people who worked on these sites; may be misremembering!)
