Search

• Inter-wiki search is here! An A/B test of a new search results page which includes inter-wiki search results was deployed to Persian, Italian, Catalan and Polish Wikipedias. Take a look and give us feedback! (T149806)
• TextCat (language ID) improvements for German, English, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, and Russian Wikipedias have been deployed. (T149324) In general, more languages are available to be detected, and detection accuracy is higher.
• TextCat has also been enabled on the Dutch Wikipedia. (T142140)
• A warning is now displayed if a user runs an advanced search query which only returns partial results due to a query timeout. (T149142)
• Our initial analysis of the Stempel Polish analyzer is done. Overall it works well, but has some rare but bizarre stemming bugs. There’s a live demo with the Polish Wikipedia index in labs. Feedback on the Phab ticket (T154517) or talk page of the write up is very welcome.
