Hi Nik,

I'm looking for volunteer wikis to try out the new search that Chad and I've been working on called CirrusSearch.

<sales pitch>Be a part of the second wave of wikis and influence new search features!</sales pitch>

I would have a question − sorry if it was answered already but I did not find it mentionned in the Mediawiki.org pages − please point me to the right place if so.

 

* CirrusSearch indexes expanded templates.

How does CirrusSearch handle cross-namespace transclusions like the one used on Wikisource?

See for example <https://fr.wikisource.org/wiki/On_ne_badine_pas_avec_l%E2%80%99amour>, which is merely the super-transclusion of text from the Page: namespace. Search of whatever string from the play text does not (necessarily) return the page of the play itself (though your mileage may vary [1]).

Thanks!

[1] For example, http://ur1.ca/fwoys does not return me <https://fr.wikisource.org/wiki/Les_mots_tristes> ; but http://ur1.ca/fwoyt does return me <https://fr.wikisource.org/wiki/Malheur_%C3%A0_moi_!>…
