A search in Wikipedia reports the wrong number of hits. For example, until
recently, searching for "supercede" (without quote marks) in the Main
namespace, including redirects, resulted in 

Results 1 - 12 of 12 for "supercede"

followed by a list of 12 articles. This number has been reported correctly for
years.

A week or two ago 16 hits were reported, although only 12 were still listed. On
24 November at !9:25 20 <Results 1 - 20 of 20 for "supercede"}> was displayed,
followed by a list of 12 articles, the same articles as had been listed for 12
and then 16 results. So either the number of hits is reported incorrectly, or
possibly the number is correct and not all hits are listed (I don't think so, 8
new uses of "supercede" in a week or so would be unusual). I report this as
new, as searching for "search result number" in Bugzilla finds nothing.
