Description:
I like working with Wikis, but the search functions are among the worst
out there.

If you search for "moveit" or "moveit freely"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=moveit&go=Go
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&search=moveit
+freely&fulltext=Search

...it can't find:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOVEit_Freely

Also, notice that a Wiki direct link to "moveit_freely" comes up
empty...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/moveit_freely
(Yes, case sensitivity is evil.)
