Yes it's does seem to be providing results faster than ever but they
haven't stopped being low quality and nearly useless..
You mean the indexing's too out of date, or something else?
The last index update seems to be somewhere between 10th and 20th May.
Could be better.
We're aware of that problem. Brion's been working on improvements to
the dump process; once those are done, I suspect automation will be
adopted. When this happens, more frequent updates will be possible.
I've also quizzed him of late, and I am of the impression that better
indexing is on the agenda too.
Meanwhile, could I request that redirects be
deprioritised in search
results? For example, search for "Couesnon". The first two matches are
redirects to "Couesnon River", the actual article, which appears 3rd.
That's possible.
