[BUG] Share-a-fact removes parenthetical content from selected text
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

How many times were you able to reproduce it?

Always

Steps to reproduce

  1. Search for and open the "Lost operas by Claudio Monteverdi" article (or any article with content in parenthesis)
  2. Select the text "The Italian composer Claudio Monteverdi (1567–1643), in addition to a large output of church music and madrigals, wrote" (or any text with parenthesis)
  3. Wait for the popover menu to appear, select "Share-a-fact" if available, "Share" if not

Expected results

Text within parenthesis is in the resulting share a fact image

Actual results

Text within parenthesis is not in the resulting share a fact image

Regression?

No, and this looks like an intentional decision, so this is probably not really a bug but rather a change to expected behavior.

Per our meeting discussion, this was intentional, but can be removed.

Tested on iPhone 6s (iOS 10.3.3) and iPhone 7 (iOS 10.3.1) with Wikipedia app 5.7.0 (1235).
I got different results for each device according to the photos below, iPhone 6s was not able
to find the article, while iPhone 7 did display the text within parenthesis in the resulting
share a fact image.

Tested on iPad Pro with iOS 11.0 and iPhone 7+ with iOS 11.0.1 on App 5.7.0 (1239)

This is working for me. @Nicholas.tsg can you type "lost operas" into the iPhone 6 and see if the full article title appears in search suggestions?

Tested on iPhone 6s (iOS 10.3.3) but now using Wikipedia app 5.7.0 (1241). According to the photos below the "lost operas" article is now searchable on the device and share a fact button works as expected so this is fixed.
