Yeah, there are some weird (but apparently popular) suggestions there.
coc -> cocaine first, and then coca cola
peg -> pegging (sexual practice) is third, higher than anyone named peggy
ob -> Osama bin Laden first, and Obama nowhere on the list
oba -> gets Obama to 3rd place, but even searching for obama still has
Osama bin Laden as the first result
mur -> Murray-Darling steamboat people (what the heck???)
One other oddity: Searching for a digit works great for 1 through 9. But
searching for 0 doesn't bring up ANY results, either for the suggester, or
for prefix search. Doing an actual search on enwiki for 0 brings up a
disambig page with lots of reasonable candidate results.

Hi,
http://en-suggesty.wmflabs.org/suggest.html is updated with a score that
integrates pageviews.
Pageviews solve most of the problems we encountered in the previous
formula unfortunately we now see some porn related suggestions.
- x will suggest xxx
- po will suggest pornhub just below poland in 2nd position. And is ranked
#6 for the query 'p'
I just wanted to let you know about this and would like to know if it's
something we should address.
Thanks for your feedback.
David.
