[Wikia-l] Search for this phrase after wrong URL

[John Beckett]

The wiki behaviour after an incorrect URL is entered might be improved.

I experimented by entering a nonexistent URL (simulating what would happen if I was
using an old bookmark to a page that had been moved, with the redirect later being
deleted):

http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Highlighting_Long_Lines

The normal "no such page" appears:

Oops! Vim Tips Wiki does not have a page with this exact name.
* Click here to start this page or here to search for this phrase on the wiki.
* If a page previously existed at this exact title, please check the deletion log.

The problem is that clicking "search for this phrase" searches for
"Highlighting_Long_Lines". Of course that finds nothing (because the page titles and
contents don't contain underscores).

It seems to me that "search for this phrase" should replace underscores with spaces
before searching (it already seems to replace stuff like "%2C").

Also, IMHO the links should be reversed so it reads:
* Click here to search for this phrase on the wiki or here to start this page.

I know that Wikia wants to encourage participation, but if I enter an incorrect URL
it's because:

(1) I'm testing whether the page exists because I think there should be such a page.
-or-

(2) I'm using an old bookmark, or I'm mistyping a URL, or similar blunder.

For (1), I should be clever enough to click the second link if I want to create a
page.

For (2), I'm going to be perplexed when I get the "Oops!" result, and I do NOT want
to misled into clicking the "start this page" link which would further irritate and
confuse me.
