Here is how to reproduce it, when trying to add a link to the page "Maria" on
en.wiki.

1) Select the add link icon and type "maria"
2) Select "Maria", which is at the end of the suggested list
3) Press Enter or the "<" button
4) Save

The link is added to Mariah Carey (which was on the top of the suggested list).
Cf.

Note that this doesn't happen if in 2) you had typed "Maria" (which is the
exact title of the page you want to link to).
Cf.

The same problem appears in similar situations in it.wiki (for example when
adding a link to "Sega" you need to type it exactly like that, since the first
option is always SEGA) 

I'm using Firefox 22.0 on Mac OS X 10.6.8.
