Description reza1615 2012-11-06 11:45:08 UTC 
In my opinion in wikidata for namespace 0 when user click on red link it is much better to redirect him to Special:CreateItem (that can have additional notice on top) instead of MediaWiki:Searchmenu-new
now it is confusing
Comment 1 denny vrandecic 2012-11-08 10:39:29 UTC 
The current behaviour is as expected. People should search first, and then create the item. The other issue is that links to NS0 should use the ID, not the label or title of the page on Wikipedia. This sucks a bit, but it is a different issue.
