When i search for Miami this is my top result:
Miami (1897 bytes)
1: [[eo:Miami]]
3: ...ty in the [[United States]]. For other uses see [[Miami
(disambigation)]].''</font>
this is horrible, its a usabilty blotch. i't's just, very unproductive and
non friendly andj ust ugly really
I suggest we do this, stript the markup so we get :
Miami (1897 bytes)
City in the United States. For other uses see Miami.
where "Untied States" is a hyperlink to United States, and Miami to the
dismbiguation page.. Much more readble, much more space efficient....
Baiscally what I am suggestion is to either parse markup (except for obvious
thinks like lists and == which would make it unreadable) or strip it out.
because the search results are not very readable
another option i ould like would be this:
Miami (1897 bytes)
City in the United States. For other uses see Miami.
---also available in Esperanto, Spanish ......
as a result
Suggestions, comments? reasons this isn't so? or anything built upon these
ideas?
