Dear DBpedia Lookup team, First of all, thanks for bringing up the DBpedia Lookup service again after the short unplanned downtime. I have one remark, though: could it be that it used to be more forgiving in the past? Let me illustrate with a couple of queries for "martin luther king":
http://lookup.dbpedia.org/api/search.asmx/KeywordSearch?&QueryString=martin+luther+king => no results http://lookup.dbpedia.org/api/search.asmx/KeywordSearch?&QueryString=martin+luther+king+jr. => no results http://lookup.dbpedia.org/api/search.asmx/KeywordSearch?&QueryString=martin+luther+king,+jr. => correct results So it seams like as if it only matches the exact terms of the corresponding DBpedia resource page http://dbpedia.org/page/Martin_Luther_King,_Jr. Obviously the old service is gone, so comparing is difficult, but I have the gut feeling that it used to be a little more forgiving in the past. Can anyone confirm or deny this? Thanks!
