Hoi,
A previous iteration of Special:MediaSearch provided results in my
language. The results were based on the media that had a depict statement
on the subject that I was looking for.When I look for bever, I expect to
find beavers. I don't.
Is it possible to have a version of Special:MediaSearch that actually works
for other languages but English? The previous iteration worked for me.
Thanks,
GerardM
