Highlights

 * Something goes here

Search

 * Search of wikidata string property values using haswbstatement is case sensitive - after a bit of discussion, we added a patch for adding a case-insenstitive subfield for statement field, and re-indexing happened (with a minor issue) to get it into production
 * We received a request to delete search indices for now-deleted zerowiki from production and did the needful
 * Glent work: create oozie workflow for glent m0 prep has been finished
 * The team did some work with the Multimedia team to index captions as description fields not label
 * David worked on adapting IndexLookupFallbackMethod for glent requirements
 * The team worked on evaluating DYM metrics that are available in current search satisfaction logging with a follow up in
 * Metrics we should use moving forward
 * % of search shown a [auto / non-auto] dym
 * Target: Increase % without significantly reducing the other metrics
 * % of people shown non-auto dym that click through to dym results
 * Target: Increase % of clickthrough
 * % of searches shown dym search results [auto / non-auto] dym results that clicked a result
 * Target: Increase % of clickthrough
 * There was a bug where there was an unexpected result set returned by Elasticsearch, we went ahead and closed it because it looks like the same root cause is fixed in
