TITLE: Wikipedia

PROBLEM:

Some comments about Wikipedia were left on the SogudiFeedback page...

23-Jan-2006
Minor problem: English-language Wikipedia recently updated its software so that the plus signs between terms no longer get converted to underscores. It would be nice to be able to optionally specify a separator character with each Sogudi shortcut, to use instead of the plus sign.

Oh and something I noticed: It would be really great if spaces for Wikipedia Requests weren't processed as "+" but as "_" so that one doesn't have to change that when searching.-

RESPONSE:

As of Monday, 20-Feb-2006, 11:50 a.m. CST, Wikipedia was correctly converting search phrases containing pluses into underscores. I tried multiple search phrases, including those that lead directly to a wiki page and those that don't. Wikipedia acted as expected. I used the 'wikip' shortcut that comes with a factory install of Sogudi.

SOLUTION:

None needed.

CLARIFICATION: +->_ not for "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/@@@" Yeah, the link you use works. I use one that is slightly faster, that doesn't take the long way over the search engine. It is quite handy when you know the article name and Wikipedia is having a slow day. I don't think that you need to solve this though, because one can just use underscores instead of spaces when he thinks this link is so much better. hope it's ok to edit in here too.

STATUS: CLOSED 20-Feb-2006
