CallerNo6: yeah, I'm pretty sure that Musicbrainz's search is the only one ever that does that

hawke: Since OR is the default for Lucene, I massively doubt it.
2015-02-13 04409, 2015
chirlu`
It would mean
2015-02-13 04425, 2015
chirlu`
*everyone* overrides the default, except the MB search server.
2015-02-13 04433, 2015

chirlu`: Name another search engine that ORs by default
2015-02-13 04446, 2015
chirlu`
Google?
2015-02-13 04424, 2015
hawke
Nope.
2015-02-13 04427, 2015
chirlu`
Admittedly it gives a warning then (“the following results did not contain all search terms”).
2015-02-13 04403, 2015
hawke
I mean I guess they kind of fall back to OR, but that's only if they can't find anything where all search times apply
2015-02-13 04429, 2015
hawke
*terms
2015-02-13 04437, 2015
chirlu`
The MB search ranks results containing all search terms higher, too.
2015-02-13 04415, 2015

So your “opera OR type:catalogue” first lists catalogues with “opera” in their name, before continuing with results that only match one.
2015-02-13 04446, 2015
hawke
sorry, but the idea that when I search for 'opera' and 'type:catalogue', I actually want *every single catalog series in MB* is just pure insanity
2015-02-13 04409, 2015
CallerNo6
I think most people, who are used to google-ish searches, would expect AND results followed by OR results.
2015-02-13 04430, 2015
chirlu`
And that’s exactly what you get.
2015-02-13 04407, 2015
chirlu`
The first results of the OR query are identical to “all results of the AND query”.
2015-02-13 04435, 2015
chirlu`
So I have difficulty to see why the default behaviour is fucking, retarded, shitty, and terrible.
2015-02-13 04402, 2015
CallerNo6
Right, so that's good. Like you said, a divider saying "below here, results for OR" would be nice.
2015-02-13 04409, 2015
chirlu`
Oh, and insane. :-)
2015-02-13 04409, 2015
hawke
Except google is actually intelligent about its search results.
2015-02-13 04420, 2015
hawke
it doesn't give you every single page on the internet as a result for every single query
2015-02-13 04418, 2015
CallerNo6
Try playing with netflix's search, if you haven't. They so badly want to show you /something/ that I don't think it's possible to get a "0 results found".
2015-02-13 04446, 2015
CallerNo6
Crap, I wish I'd saved some of my experiments. They were hilarious.

CatQuest: i have tested Firefox to bypass javascript image visualisers like lightbox… there is no equivalent for opera’s « right‑click, o » (you can use t or w instead but it’s less good) but « middle‑click » works the same !

sort name question. for "Fred E. for the World" should that be "for the World, Fred E." as sort name?
2015-02-13 04426, 2015
reosarevok
That's an artist or?
2015-02-13 04429, 2015
TheBikeGuitarist
World, Fred E. for the another possibility maybe strictly following guidelines
2015-02-13 04432, 2015
TheBikeGuitarist
yes a person

drummer for R Band (a band I was in 1990s)
2015-02-13 04451, 2015
reosarevok
I mean, it's not really a name + surname I guess (unless his surname is For the World)
2015-02-13 04458, 2015
TheBikeGuitarist
no it is not.
2015-02-13 04458, 2015
reosarevok
So I'd just have sortname be the same as name
2015-02-13 04409, 2015
TheBikeGuitarist
oh Fred E. for the World as sort name too?
2015-02-13 04413, 2015
reosarevok
Yup
2015-02-13 04434, 2015
TheBikeGuitarist
okay, but for "The Amazing One" I entered "Amazing One, The" that is right, right?
2015-02-13 04444, 2015
TheBikeGuitarist
ty for the help
2015-02-13 04446, 2015
TheBikeGuitarist
oh wait one more please, the name of band is R Band. I put sort name of "Band, R" because is a pun on "our" which would be moved. But it maybe should be R Band sort name
2015-02-13 04416, 2015
reosarevok
Yeah. Articles always sort last
2015-02-13 04429, 2015
TheBikeGuitarist
so would R Band become "Band, R" ?
2015-02-13 04435, 2015
reosarevok
When you're dealing with a person, Name + Surname, then sort is Surname, Name. But in other cases, it doesn't matter
2015-02-13 04446, 2015
reosarevok
I'd just do R Band :)
2015-02-13 04453, 2015
TheBikeGuitarist
so "R Band" as sort name is okay? YAY okay gonna go fix.
2015-02-13 04421, 2015

I hope I'm doing okay. Adding lotta stuff to "The Bicycling Guitarist" artist. If an editor is subscribed to my edits, then my stuff is being reviewed? If anyone has a minute to check my edits, I'd aprreciate feedback on how I'm doing or suggestions what to do next.
