(Whiteboard: [specification][type:bug])

What did you do? ================ Searched on MDN for "tools". What happened? ============== Results didn't include the "developer tools" page. What should have happened? ========================== https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools should have been a top hit. Is there anything else we should know? ====================================== Not only did the first three hits screen not include it, but neither did the "see more" result show it either.

I've fixed this while working on the extended filters of bug 915760. For the record, the way we index our content currently prevents the use of the correct search tokenizer and analyzer, which leads to the poor query effectiveness as you [:sheppy] described. I've also added a query boost for when a search query matches a title exactly and use phrase matching now for the rest of the content fields (title, summary and content) which also improves the scoring for when you search for a couple of words instead of only one word.
