Description Ljubomir 2007-09-19 13:50:06 UTC 
Version:           1.4.7 (using KDE KDE 3.5.4)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
Compiler:          gcc 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)
OS:                Linux

When playing tracks from artists with slashes "/" in their name, like "To/Die/For", the Wikipedia tab in the context browser shows nothing. When clicking the "open in external browser" button on the toolbar, konqueror opens this page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To/Die/For (band)
which returns 404.

These addresses work correctly:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_Die_For_(band)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To/Die/For

but this doesn't:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To/Die/For_(band)

Amarok was built from 1.4.7 tarball, but the KDE is from the Ubuntu packages. Didn't understand the question :(
Comment 2 Peter C. Ndikuwera 2007-09-22 14:17:44 UTC 
I accepted to change this, then had a thought:

Is this a problem with wikipedia not having a redirect URL for To/Die/For_(band) or is this a general problem?

Can you give me another example where this fails?

AC/DC fails too, opening:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC/DC (band)
