I recalled that the Wikipedia Android app displays
thumbnails in its search results. I think that's pulling from OpenSearch
with the PageImages extension[2]? but I haven't really delved into that
yet. I'm curious how those images get pulled - if it's taking into account
infoboxes or such, or just the first image on the page, or what.
I'm writing an article on that subject. It hasn't been reviewed, but it's
interesting. Your feedback is welcome.
