The underlying problem here is weak search on FR,
which frankly needs to be upgraded to full-text.

Even with Legacy Media Misspelling Override enabled,
you may not find priors. When I went looking for the
prior article, I used some of the words I recalled
from the art title, like “singer”. “singer” was in it.
“singer” did NOT find it.

> ... and know how to spell when we preform a search.

No comment :-)

With the $$$$ we all contribute it would seem like an upgrade or two would not be too much to ask.
