Hi!
I uploaded a small HTML page to compare both approaches:

This is very cool! From my very short testing, seems that it works
pretty nicely.

I ran some zero result rate tests against this API today, it is a huge
reduction in the zero result rate over the existing prefix search. from
32% to 19% (on a 1% sample of prefix searches for an entire day)

Hey all,
Several weeks ago we ran an A/B test to try and decrease the number of
searches on Wikipedia returning zero results. This consisted of a
small config change that reduced the confidence needed for our systems
to provide search results, along with a change to the smoothing
algorithm used
Can you think of a way of consistently identifying a user from page to
page, but only in the trace following them landing on the search page,
that does not include page parameters?

Hey everyone,
I've re-run my big wiki zero result rate numbers to see what has changed
in the last month. The results are here:

Since I was only looking at the big 52 wikis (100K+ articles),
Nice catch Max. Thanks for reporting it. Do you have any suggestions for
how we could alleviate this issue?
Thanks,
Dan
