Is there an document around that describes searching Mediawiki? I notice some strange results on our corporate wikis running on 1.5.
For example, one article contains the words "Best" and "Information". If I search the wiki for "information", the article is returned. Search for "best", and it is not. Letter case doesn't seem to be the issue.
I notice this with other words, as well. Is there like a common word list that Mediawiki disregards because of queries returning too many results?
Thanks
Andrew
