Issue Summary

Sometimes when there isn't a Wikipedia article with an exact match for a phrase, you are redirected to another page. For example, a query for Lignocellulose resulted in being redirected to an article on "Lignocellulosic biomass". The CFW article results in:
title: Lignocellulose
body: #REDIRECT Lignocellulosic biomass
Wikipedia, itself, notes that the page has been redirected, but displays the final redirected page.

Comments

#1

Sorry, I simply suggest to query for "Lignocellulosic biomass" then -- or are you doing this programmatically?

#2

Yes, I was doing it programmatically, but it turned to be too fragile with too many dependencies. You can close this issue for now.
