Description

When searching for "Berlin" on wikidata.org, the same item (Q64) is shown dozens of times on the result page (apparently, once for every sitelink).

Things to consider:

  • wikidata.org is currently using SqlSearch
  • This problem is not evident on wikidata-test-repo.wikimedia.de

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

  • Bug 41764 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Notice that the number of results will be different if I try each of these:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:Search/algebra?ns0=1
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:Search/álgebra?ns0=1
so there is also some problem with accented letters.

so there is also some problem with accented letters.

That's maybe bug 41577?

Bug is not present anymore. Due to Lucene search being activated again?

It was actually already gone before that. I suppose the index was somehow messed up initially. Closing.
