Krinkle <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] Summary|OpenSearch should check if |OpenSearch: If input exists |input exists as a title and |as a title it should be |return that, regardless of |included in the results |results | --- Comment #1 from Krinkle <[email protected]> --- The default search backend implements proper prefix search and does this naturally. But extensions providing search backends like Lucene and CirrusSearch actually fail to implement proper prefix searching and instead use their search engine ranking for prefix search as well. Thus often the exact match is not on top or is not even in the first 10 results at all. E.g. on en.wikipedia.org: > Example 1. "Example (musician)" 2. "Example" 3. "Example.com" > John ive 1. "John Ives" 2. "John Ivey" 3. "John Ive" > Foo 1. "Football (soccer)" 2. "Football League Cup" 3. "Foot (length)" "Foo" exists but is not in the results. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
