What happens?:reports an error with all of the items with underscores (_)

What should have happened instead?: Should be able to read underscores and other normal features in the url-type page titles, because different sources could produce that kind of irregularity.

Software version (on Special:Version page; skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):

Yeah, this is actually something we talked about and meant to implement, I think it just fell through the cracks. I'm not sure if we should allow the non-canonical form in the page content itself, but the worklist edit helper should canonicalize the titles before saving them.
