Google search box, as I know Brion and Kate (and probably others too)

There is also the possibility that it could be considered to be bias
towards Google. The only reason we have the Google box on the "search
disabled" page is that it is the only way WP can be searched. Now, of
course, if Google want to promote themselves and donate the coding and
algorithm for their search engine to Wikimedia, cool!
