Screen captures generally get filtered out by the Apache e-mail, it didn't come through.
But this makes no sense. The text_en field type you pasted should not be having the problems you're talking about. So if you add debug=true, you should be seeing your "Wednesday" query going against your field. If you just type q=Wednesday, then the default field is used, the "df" parameter in the request handler you're using.
