Description:
It appears that if a page is moved to a title with a leading space, the space
is not removed, essentially creating an unreachable article, as any standard
link to it will redirect to the title without the space. This can cause
problems with categorization, as it will categorize articles that don't seem to
belong in the category at the very top, as they are sorted by the space,
instead of the first letter, the link on the category page will still redirect
to the non-space version. For example [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?
title=:_Institute_of_Management%2C_Nirma_University%2C_Ahmedabad&action=edit]
is categorized into
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikify_from_November_2006], creating a
bluelink in the category that links to a deleted page.
