Seriously, can someone please sort the wiki out so that the # works in searching? So that, for example, searching Luster Dragon #2 actually comes up with the correct monster. Battlemaniac (talk • contribs) 20:02, June 17, 2012 (UTC)
- It's a symbol... and it could be quite difficult to get it right unless Dinoguy found a way. I also wish that Wikia Staff would not have changing all Wikia too much - they made them look like they were born from the loser. --iFredCat 20:12, June 17, 2012 (UTC)
- This is unfortunately, not possible. # is used by the wiki software to jump to a paragraph heading in articles, and is therefore reserved, and unable to be used for article names.--TwoTailedFox (My Talk Page) 20:45, June 17, 2012 (UTC)
- That's why I considered that symbol as "difficult part" to fixing into the mother computer. So all we can do is to put in "Luster Dragon" then click on #2 in the search list. --iFredCat 20:57, June 17, 2012 (UTC)
- Of just type Luster Dragon 2.--TwoTailedFox (My Talk Page) 21:04, June 17, 2012 (UTC)

- The hash anchors aren't just used in wiki software, it's part of HTML, so they won't be able to do anything even if they wanted to.
- Luster Dragon 2 is fine. -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 01:55, June 18, 2012 (UTC)
- That being said, if you get to "Article A" by searching for "Article A #Z", the former needs a hatnote pointing to the latter (I know some such pages do have such a hatnote, but I've never tried to find out if all of them do). 「ディノ奴千？！」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 21:44, June 18, 2012 (UTC)
