Description alanm1.enwiki 2013-07-08 17:22:10 UTC
If you search for "Some phrase" (including the quotes), if the page is not found, it says "You may create the page ""Some phrase"". If the user does not look carefully at the message, they may fail to see the extra set of quotes, and create the page with quotes in the title, which is almost always not what the user intends. The quotes should be stripped. The user should have a different avenue available to create the page with the quotes in the title if necessary.
