This looks really cool! I think it makes sense that if you search for the
name of a really old book you also get the Wikisource entry, or a
Wiktionary result if you look up a word.

Hello,

We're happy to announce that the latest update to the search results page
is now in production!

We've added snippets from the Wikimedia sister projects into a sidebar
display on the search results page to further discovery into even more
knowledge using your search query. You can test this new functionality out
using your favorite wiki and here are a few quick sample URLs to get you
started:

- German:
https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=Wiener+Schnitzel~&title=Special:Search
- Italian:
https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=Ricerca&fulltext=1
- Basque:
https://eu.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=barruti~&title=Berezi:Bilatu&go=Joan
- English:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=the+night+is+nigh&title=Special:Search

We had sent an email earlier in the year, in which we described the overall
search work that the Discovery team has been doing, if you'd like a
refresher on our project.[1]


Cheers from the Discovery Search team!
