I hope this goes through, I've had tons of trouble submitting to this list in the past (am I supposed to put "[Mediawiki-l] " in the subject myself?)
All of a sudden, my users are confused because my MediaWiki:Nogomatch message ( http://meta.enterwiki.net/page/MediaWiki:Nogomatch ) isn't transcluding at the top of Special:Search - much of my noobie documentation I wrote used Special:Search as a recourse to help them create a new page when it was necessary to do so (type the page name in the search box, hit enter, and click 'create this article' at the top of the ensuing page). I don't often use search myself so I didn't notice till I had a user complain that this was missing, and it can't have happened except in the upgrade to 1.6.x - how do I re-enable this? It seems like it should totally be there; I checked 1.6.x's SpecialSearch.php and it still adds it to wgOut after there are no auto-redirect-after-search matches - so why isn't it appearing?
