On https://pt.wikipedia.org, if I type "modulo" in the search box, I get the article "Módulo" as a suggestion, but if I type "modulo:string", there is no suggestion.
Notice that there is a namespace called "Módulo" (in English, "Module"), and the page called "Módulo:String" exists.

Interesting - CirrusSearch does not provide any proposals at all: https://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=modulo%3Astring&title=Especial%3APesquisar&srbackend=CirrusSearch
We're starting to try tracking stuff with phabricator so, for science!: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T720
This looks to be caused by how the namespaces are resolved: cirrus uses mediawiki to resolve the namespaces but lsearchd used lucene. Lets see what we can do about that.
One way to "fix" this right away would be add Modulo as a namespace alias for Módulo but I'll see if I can make it work in search.
Change 168167 had a related patch set uploaded by Manybubbles:
Add hook to extract namespace in prefix search
Resolved. It'll take some time for this to arrive on a wiki near you because it requires rebuilding the search index which has to come after the code is deployed.
