I agree with Solo. I can help to make necessary changes. It doesn't really make sense to have two articles with different letter cases when they mean the same thing. I think this should be included in the newer versions of Mediawiki, too.

if there are many users with different spelling behaviour it looks more like a "workaround" than a "solution" ;) if you are allowed to type it wrong, users will type it wrong.
an option to ignore case would solve our problems. in which place/file would it fit best?
