Could a bot maintain {also} templates by adding existing pages to them? And would anyone be willing to run this bot? I've always wondered about this but it wasn't really important to me because I could just search for a page with special characters by typing the name and hitting search and finding it in the results. But now that I've switched to Vector (I was feeling like a [[Luddite]].) I'm automatically taken to the page without special characters if it exists. It often does.

E.g. If I'm looking for [[libró]], I type [[libro]] into the search bar and I can only go to libro or the suggestions, but libró isn't one of them. So I have to type [[Special:Search]] into the search bar, then search again from that page. (I tried "Special:Search/libro" and it takes me straight to libro.)

:I don't know anything about bots, but if you type "libro" in the search box and then scroll down to the bottom where it says "containing... ''libro''" you'll be taken to the search results page. —[[User:Angr|'''An''']][[User talk:Angr|''gr'']] 21:50, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

::Thank you! I still think the bot is a good idea. [[User:Ultimateria|Ultimateria]] ([[User talk:Ultimateria|talk]]) 22:54, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
