           Summary: url option to not show the create this page link for
                    searches
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
               URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(tec
                    hnical)#Prefix_searches_confuse_new_users
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Search
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


When &createpagelink=0 (or similar) is in the url for a search, it shouldn't
show the create this page text (MediaWiki:Searchmenu-new) when the page for the
search term doesn't exist. In input boxes, there should be an option to enable
this.

This way, new users won't be tempted to create the page when seeing the results
for a prefix search, and there are plenty of other situations where it doesn't
make sense to show this too.
