Bug ID: 54836
Summary: Redirect pages with all-uppercase words don't get
picked up when searching in lowercase
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.21.2
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Search
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
If a page contains an all-uppercase "word" and is a redirect, the search Go
function will not take you to the redirect page if you search in lowercase. For
example, say the page "Test ONE" redirects to the Main Page. Searching "test
one" and using Go will not catch the redirect, it will take you to the search
results page. If the page is NOT a redirect page, then it works as it should.
If you search "test one" and "Test ONE" exists as a non-redirect, you will be
taken to the page.
It should be noted that the opposite situation works fine. If a redirect page
is called "Test one" and you search for "test ONE", the redirect will catch
like normal. So there is a very specific case where it does not work that
should be fixed.
