Bug ID: 62222
Summary: Mobile devices aren't always redirected to the proper
mobile search results page
Product: MobileFrontend
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized

If a mobile device (tested on Kindle 3 and ipod 2 with Opera Mini) issues a
search for a non-existent page (e.g. "Georgias") with one of the following URLs
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?search=Georgias
or
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=Georgias
or
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php/?search=Georgias
then the desktop search results page will be served, not the mobile version.
If the URL
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/?search=Georgias
is used instead, or if one searches for an existing page, then the proper
mobile version is served.
This is especially serious on the Kindle, since that device presumably offers
free world-wide wireless Wikipedia access, but it issues all search requests in
the first format above and the resulting search results pages are unusable.
