To reproduce:
- Go to the Hebrew Wikipedia article מיקי מאוס: הרפתקאות מבולבלות (Mickey Mouse Mixed-Up Adventures). (I did on this version.)
- Edit in VE.
- Open the search and replace bar.
- Search for the string : (two caracters: space followed by colon).
Expected: Find 23 appearances of this.
Observed: The < and > buttons are grayed out, as if the string doesn't appear in the article at all.
