Hello,
We're happy to announce that the latest update to the search results page
is now in production!
We've added snippets from the Wikimedia sister projects into a sidebar
display on the search results page to further discovery into even more
knowledge using your search query. You can test this new functionality out
using your favorite wiki and here are a few quick sample URLs to get you
started:
- German:
https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=Wiener+Schnitzel~&title=Spe…
- Italian:
https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=Ricerca&fulltext=1
- Basque:
https://eu.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=barruti~&title=Berezi:Bilat…
- English:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=the+night+is+nigh&title=Spe…
We had sent an email earlier in the year, in which we described the overall
search work that the Discovery team has been doing, if you'd like a
refresher on our project.[1]
Cheers from the Discovery Search team!
