By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Martin Hodges 2010-07-16 03:24:11 CDT

I appreciate that the Wikipedia entries are a moving target but the page opened by viewing the page pointed to 'with an external browser' gives the following error.

Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name.

Setting the address destination without the '_(band)' suffix goes to the correct page(more often than not).

This appears to be a simple fix...

Is this report still valid?

Comment 2 Martin Hodges 2013-05-23 08:17:16 CDT

Sub-optimal result was mostly due to a lack of naming conventions in Wikipedia.
Searching with the "_band" | "_album" | "_song" suffixes often resulted in a "Not found" browser window. This offered no clickable alternatives.
Changing the search string to just the band/artist name would at least take one to the disambiguation page with a clickable link to the actual artist.

Now the Browser field is empty since WP now have a completely different page build up. This is a bit of a moving target.

Thank you for responding. What Trinity multimedia app are you using to see (have seen) these results?

Comment 4 Martin Hodges 2013-05-23 14:41:57 CDT

Sorry, didn't appreciate that the history had been binned.
Amarok. The context browser that may show the band, album or song entry on wikipedia.

The existing code appends _band to the ID3 artist. Wikipedia have moved away from naming their pages like this. Hence my previous posts.

The existing code extracts the main area of the html page. The structure of the page is changed so that the parsing function must be changed.

Thanks. I updated the Summary and Component. That said, if I understand correctly, Amarok needs to be updated to correctly parse Wikipedia.
