Comment (by jrf):

 @johnjamesjacoby Thanks for adding the patch and good call on the doc fix.
 I think the descriptive documentation could be improved a little as well
 to state that `%` wildcards to be used with `LIKE` should not be passed to
 the function as that is unclear unless you study the code sample.

 The `wpdb->prepare()` documentation should probably also be more explicit
 about how `%` wildcards in `LIKE` statements should be passed. /cc
 @DrewAPicture


 Also: did you mean to commit this extra file to the patch: `wp-content/db-
 plugins/ludicrousdb src/wp-content/db-plugins/ludicrousdb` ?
