package: wiki.debian.org
severity: wishlist
When you trigger a search at wiki.debian.org, by default, it searches
for page's titles (URLs). This is only useful for English speakers, as
the base pages are in English, and the translated pages have to follow
the scheme concerning their URL address within the wiki
base page: PackageManagement
translated page: es/PackageManagement (for spanish)
Therefore, if I search for "gestión de paquetes" (the direct
translation), it shows nothing, as it is a good practice to keep the
original URL name (plus language code).
Changing the default behaviour would be useful for wiki users that don't
speak English.
I've noticed that search by text is still a bit weak, but little by
little I guess it can be fixed :).
Thanks, Omar

Any reasonable future wiki engine will not have this problem.
Closing for now, as this problem should go away when the wiki
migration gets done.
