Howdy all, We are attempting to provide access to about 8 million records of highly variable quality and length. In a nutshell, we are trying to find a way to deprioritize "suspect" records without discriminating against useful records that happen to be short. We do not wish to eliminate suspect records from the results -- just deprioritize them a bit.
We have been indexing a field that marks a record as likely to be good or bad, and I'm trying to figure out the most efficient way to use it (should I be trying this at all?). As a newbie, my first inclination was to OR the search terms with the same terms combined with a "good record marker" with a modest boost. However, this method seems really clunky, and I'm wondering if there's a better way to accomplish what we're trying to do. Thanks, kyle
