| Friday November 06 11:03:46 2020 Melissa O'Neil does not appear in all searches |
| I don't know if this is the right place to question this: This is an odd error: If you search by the actress name alone for Melissa O'Neil she only appears in the database for the show "Dark Matter". Yet, if you search the show "The Rookie" she appears under 'actress'. Her name is correctly spelled under both searches yet you cannot get all her appearances by searching under her name alone in the correct search field. Can this be fixed? Also brings up the question about how many other actresses this may be happening to. |

As you say, it was spelled correctly in The Rookie entry, but wasn't showing up. On a hunch I moved the comma over so that there was a space after her name, but it didn't make any difference in the search results. I then replaced the name with a copy/paste from your comment, and it is now showing up in response to a query as it should. My best guess is that there was some unprintable character on the line which interfered with the search, but I have no idea what it might have been. Since I don't know what caused the issue for this entry, I have no way to determine how many other entries may have the same problem. |

When I made it go away, I thought I had a text dump of the DB that I could work from, but my last dump was before that entry was created. My best guess is still some hex-crap in the entry, but I can't see what it was. |

| Kind of what I guessed from the description. The original entry had a "curly" apostrophe, which doesn't match the one from many keyboards. Melissa O’Neil Melissa O'Neil Searching for that symbol in the Actress field only turns up two others: 24455 (The 100) and 24778 (The Good Place). I will leave those for the moment so you guys can look at them. |

I use Microsoft Word to type up entries, and then copy/paste to actually put them into the DB. I don't recall any option in Word to use an alternate apostrophe, and considering how many entries I've put in, there should be far more problem entries if it always used the alternate apostrophe. That leaves me stumped for the moment, but I have a bunch of new entries that I need to type up, so I'll see if I can spot a problem with the punctuation as I'm writing them up. |

If you want to check some out: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2826191/converting-ms-word-curly-quotes-and-apostrophes I don't think its worth the effort for you to do any coding to track the entries, easier to just correct any entries which get entered. |

| If I get a chance, and don't forget, I'll look at the code to see about a detect and replace. |
