Description:
Sometimes I will type fx "User:Thue" into the search/go box on the left hand
side, and in that case when I press the "go" button I expect to be taken to that
users userpage, whether it is blank or not. Especially I don't want to be taken
to the search screen if the user exists, which mediawiki currently does if the
userpage is blank.
Attached (hopefully...) is a patch that fixes this. It also fixes
-recognize IP numbers as "User:127.0.0.1" instead of just "127.0.0.1".
-recognize IP adresses and usernames even if they contain leading blankspace
