Very Large Data Base (VLDB) conference not retrieved in the searchbox #53

The conference VLDB is not found when using the search box (on the landing page). However if the source id of the conference is passed to the servlet venue (http://som-research.uoc.edu/tools/metaScience/venue.html?id=VLDB), the corresponding data is correctly shown.

Curiosly enough, when entering "very large data" in the search box the only result is "VLDB PHD WORKSHOP - Very Large Data Bases Conference" (linking to http://som-research.uoc.edu/tools/metaScience/venue.html?id=VLDB%20PhD%20Workshop), which looks as an error (workshop vs. conference name in the entry).

Checking the database entries including "very large" in the title, we have these two results:

It seems to be an error in the first row (it is a workshop but it is classified as conference). That information is obtained by web scraping (here for titles and here for types).

Maybe line the problem is this line of the script for titles? Or maybe being a phd workshop the title in DBLP is actually the name of the conference.
