            Bug ID: 64688
           Summary: Content before colon does not show up in search
           Product: Wikipedia App
           Version: Android (alpha)
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Search

If I begin typing something and some of the results include a colon, everything
up to the colon gets removed from the displayed results.

For example, if I begin to type "User:Ragesoss", the list of search results
will be things like: "Ragesoss", "Ragesoss/sandbox", etc. For namespaces and
special pages, I can sort of see why this might have been the intended
behavior, but if so, I'll note that I find it confusing and annoying. If I'm
typing in something that starts with "User:", I'd like to see that prefix in
all the results.

This also affects article pages that have a title. For example, if I begin
typing "Lego Ninjago", the first displayed result is just "Masters of
Spinjitzu", corresponding to the article [[Lego Ninjago: Masters of
Spinjitzu]].
