Wiki search problem; temp workaround found

Post by kentsmith9
I noticed just this morning that when you use the Wiki to search for a topic, you may get a database error:
Wiki search wrote:Database error

A database query error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software.
I have narrowed it down to the following:

If a term is entered in the search box that does not have a direct match to an article or redirect, pressing the enter key or pressing the Go button to start the search, will result in this error.

If the same term is entered in the search box, but the Search button is pressed, the search will succeed.

Waze has been alerted, but if may take longer to fix due to the holidays in Israel for the next few weeks.

"Penalty" and hit enter returns an error.
"FAQ" and hit enter works fine.
"Penalty" and hit Go returns an error.
"Penalty" and hit Search works fine.
Managed to reproduce it only with Penalty, I'll talk with the devs

Thanks,
