Every time wikipedia tries to loads my favorite hip-hop artists' wiki page, it never can find it. It always brings up:

Look for Young Buck (band) on one of Wikipedia's sister project:

First off, Young Buck is not a (band), he is a hip-hop artist. Eminem does not load either. I've used older versions of Amarok and it would bring up Young Buck's wiki page. Is there anyway to filter out the (band) portion of the search? I know i could always just look it up on mozilla, but having wiki along side the music that is playing used to be a huge benefit.

Im not a big fan of any bands, besides 311. And with amarok 2, its able to bring up the 311 wiki page.

I've done my research on this forum and the only thing I can do at this point is to load an older version of amarok. Correct?

What exact Amarok version do you use?

Amarok 2.1.1....from packman. I found this post floatin arounf but it goes mostly for the 1.4 version. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... ug/316140/

the post that strikes me the most is....



Using archive.org, one thing in the html source seems to have changed. Looking at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kent_(band):
2007: <h1 class="firstHeading">Kent (band)</h1>
2009 (now): <h1 id="firstHeading" class="firstHeading">Kent (band)</h1>

In other words, there is now an id="firstHeading" in the text that Amarok problably parses.


and


from: m_wiki = m_wiki.mid( m_wiki.find( "<h1 class=\"firstHeading\">" ) );
to: m_wiki = m_wiki.mid( m_wiki.find( "<h1 id=\"firstHeading\" class=\"firstHeading\">" ) );

I strongly suggest you upgrade your Amarok version, 2.2.0 is available since 7 weeks, Amarok 2.2.1 has just been released today.
