Summary: Please add support for multiple languages search
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: Search
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: lorisboil...@yahoo.fr
I really miss the option to search for articles in more than one wikipedia;
currently I am constantly switching from the english to the french one, or then
from the danish one back to the english one, etc. Since the english wikipedia
is the best for "general" articles, but others wikipedia still have more
information about "local" stuff, I am pretty sure this would be helpfull to
lots of people (read lots of europeans like me ;) )
Maybe add the possibility to configure the search engine for multiple languages
(with a limit to 10 for instance), and then add a link to the search in the
others languages or display all results in one page?
I think this is independant from Lucene so I file this here; I hope it's the
right place.
Thanks,
Loris
PS: If you agree with this and then point me to where/how I could help
implementing it, I would be really glad to.
