Hi, folks!
Currently, it's possible to create a new article by editing the URL in the title bar of ones browser. This method is even described in the Wikipedia help text.
Why don't we put a link into the "sorry, your search didn't produce any results" text that is displayed after a search fails? This link could point directly to the keyword the user searched for and, thus, make the creation of a new article much easier (i.e. "click to create article").
Sure, this method will create a new orphan, but this is already allowed anyway.
Bye! Matthias
