Description Dysprosia 2004-10-14 11:44:57 UTC
A nice enhancement would be to add the article title to the search text box if
the article did not exist, so the possible terms could be searched for with one
click and not reentering the terms again. For example, if one goes to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_albatross, the search text would contain
"White albatross" as a default.
Comment 1 Dysprosia 2004-11-07 02:13:28 UTC
It's great that Special:Search/{{PAGENAME}} seems to work now (I don't think it
did before?) but it would still be good to have the text in the box for
consistency...

This was fixed some time in the past; I don't know when, but it's shown up now.
