Convert upper case from/to lower case doesn't work on [[Special:Search]]
Closed, DuplicatePublic

Description

This bug is reported on Japenese Wikipedia.

When you search a page with lower case name, you can got the upper case one. (e.g. Both of "Special:Search/WP:CNJS" and "Special:Search/wp:cnjs" show "Wikipedia:Help for Non-Japanese Speakers").
This is fine.

But in case of "WP:Lua" (redirecting to "Wikipedia:Lua"), I cannot get it by lower case version "Special:Search/wp:la". Below is ther OK/NG list;

What is the difference? Isn't this a bug?
or how can I resolve it?

thanks

Hi @aokomoriuta, thanks for taking the time to report this!

If this happens on Wikimedia sites then it's unrelated to MediaWiki-Search as MediaWiki-Search is not used on Wikimedia sites. Setting CirrusSearch project instead.

@Aklapper
Sorry for wrong projects, and thank you for changing.

Do you mean this is not a problem of MediaWiki core's searching function but a problem of CirrusSearch extension?
