Thread:Talk:Search/Underscores (and a question)/reply (2)

My "TMG" example feels very unbalanced. I tried other examples where a word is in the title of non-article pages and unfortunately it's always the same.
 * 1) The old search focused very much on articles. This wasn't a bad thing. Most users are looking for articles and should look for articles first. If you don't want to search for articles there are plenty of options.
 * → To get roughly the same old result with the new search I have to disable all namespaces except for the article, file and portal namespaces.
 * 1) The new search pretty much does the opposite. My user and user talk pages are boosted way up.
 * → To get roughly the same new result with the old search I have to disable the article, file and portal namespaces.

In my opinion: In my example a perfect match like the article "TMG" should always be first, followed by a decent mixture of both articles that have the word in the text and user pages that have the word in the title. Basically my idea is to give more or less the same relevance. If that makes sense.
 * Articles should be more important than all other namespaces.
 * Subject pages should be more important than talk pages (in all namespaces, e.g. "User:" should be more important than "User talk:").
 * text in the article namespace and
 * titles in non-article namespaces
