Comment:

 I see your point Sarah, thanks for sharing your view on this matter. While
 I think it would be a nice addition to have a descriptive help text under
 the search field, I agree this may need a wider discussion and a higher
 level design that would consider other UI elements.

 Closing as `invalid` following the
 [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/triaging-
 tickets/#closing-tickets ticket triaging process]. Ren, please consider
 starting a new conversation on the
 [https://forum.djangoproject.com/c/internals/5 Django Forum], where you'll
 reach a wider audience and likely get extra feedback. If there is a
 community agreement for this feature request, you are welcome to come back
 to the ticket and point to the forum topic, so we can then re-open it.

Comment (by Sarah Boyce):

 I think it's quite rare to have a help text that goes deep into the
 specifics of what is searchable and what isn't.
 We don't have an icon on columns when filters are applied, or text
 highlighting of searched text we found (which are more common UI
 patterns).
 I think going into the specifics of search in the user interface is not
 worth it. Most people "search" to find out what the search does.

Comment (by Jakub Szafrański):

 If we aim for readability, perhaps it would make sense to resolve the
 fields and use field labels (if present) and some verbose text explaining
 what lookup is used?

 Having many `search_fields` and/or fields with various lookups can lead to
 a potentially long help text which might hinder readability, so perhaps
 using some icons would make sense.

 I can have a look at it and experiment with various formats so we can
 decide

Comment (by Rajeesh Punathil):

 Yes, this can be quickly added as a small help text below and I tried that
 but what about values like {{{user__email, name__exact, ^question,
 @descr}}}, etc? We may need to use verbose equivalents for each, because
 the admin staff may not have technical knowledge to understand them as
 they are given. What's the suggestion?

Comment:

 Hello RenDelaCruz, thank you for your interest in making Django better.

 I can relate to your report, and I can see value in a small help text
 below the search box. I'm tentatively accepting to see how this would look
 like in the UI, are you available to propose a PR? We would love to count
 on your contribution for this!

 We should definitely consider the accessibility aspects of this, but IMHO
 as long as the adding is equivalent to form fields help text, this should
 comply with all the accessibility requirements.

 In any Django Admin change_list pages, when including a `search_fields`
 attribute, the search bar does not indicate which fields are searchable.
 This can easily be confused with attributes on the sidebar `list_filter`.

 Maybe something like a greyed-out caption indicating the model fields
 included in `search_fields`.
