==== Preliminary reports ====

Search results will often be accompanied by a preliminary report.
* '''There is a page named "{{font color|#0645AD|{{var|Page name}}}}"''' (a wikilink to an existing page)
* {{font color|#CC2200|Did you mean:}} {{font color|#0645AD|{{var|spelling correction}}}} (either a wikilink or a search-link)
* ''You may create the page "{{font color|#CC2200|{{var|New title}}}}"'' (a redlink to a new page name)
The ''Did you mean'' report corrects dictionary word spellings and gives a link that is either a wikilink that will navigate to an article or a search link that will perform a query. The distinction can be made by observing the presence of a ''You may create the page'' report.
Another report corrects "spellings" to coincide with any "word" found in a search index (any word on the wiki):
{{block indent|{{font color|#CC2200|Showing results for}} {{font color|#0645AD|'''{{var|query correction}}'''}}. {{font color|#CC2200|Search instead for}} {{font color|#0645AD|{{var|your query}}}} (two search links).}}<!--
