Bug ID: 60630
Summary: CirrusSearch: Remove suggestion to create article with
search title when using advanced search syntax
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: CirrusSearch
Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org

If you search use category intersection to list all pages in the intersection
of two categories, CirrusSearch suggests you create and article by the title of
your search query, which doesn't make much sense given that it's pure search
syntax.
Example:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=incategory%3A%221941+births%22+incategory%3A%221995+deaths%22&title=Special%3ASearch
The search page says: You may create the page "Incategory:"1941 births"
incategory:"1995 deaths"", but consider checking the search results below to
see whether the topic is already covered.
It probably makes sense to not make suggestions to create articles with your
search query when that query contains advanced search syntax.
