            Bug ID: 46228
           Summary: opensearch doesn't find similar articles with
                    different capitalization of words
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All

opensearch doesn't find similar articles if there is a equivalent name in the
list of results, but with different capitalization. Even if the string searched
for contains the lower case version, the upper cased version of the article
will be in the result only.

Try:
"http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=opensearch&search=Le%20roi%20est%20mort,%20vive%20le%20roi%20!";

Result will be:

["Le roi est mort, vive le roi !",["Le Roi est mort, vive le Roi !","Le Roi est
mort, vive le Roi ! (album)"]]

As you can see, there is no "Le roi est mort, vive le roi !" included in the
result (see the difference in the "Roi" vs. "roi") which clearly exists on
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_roi_est_mort,_vive_le_roi_!
