Description Howard Cheng 2009-08-31 16:17:21 UTC
When I enter a search term that ends with a parenthesis -- for example, "John Smith (", I will get the same result twice in the list. In this example, "Labour Party leader", "comics", and "Doctor Who" are all doubled.

cannot reproduce locally, can you give us link to your wiki?
Comment 2 Howard Cheng 2009-08-31 22:09:45 UTC
This is happening on en-WP and I have confirmed this in Firefox 3.5, IE7, and Safari 4 on Windows.
Comment 3 Robert Stojnic 2009-09-01 02:51:13 UTC
Still cannot reproduce, on this link

Oh it is a duplication in suggestions. OK, fixed in r55716 and pushed live on the search backend.
