:::I understand your points, but I still think there's something not quite right. I'm comparing this to search functions on other Wikis, including Wikipedia, and none of those wikis will ''always'' spit out the same list of articles if it can't find one with a matching title. On other wikis if you search for something it'll give you stuff that's at least a little close, but this wiki will always give me "Mario" "Luigi" "List of items" every single time. This gives the impression to the user (me) that the search function is broken. You go to the Zelda wiki or something, and "Link" doesn't show up at the top of every single possible search result.

::::What would be a good search function (to me) would be a thing that you could toggle in the settings. The thing that you could toggle would be acrually two things: The ability to search for just the phrase and not it jumbled up, and the ability to be able to search d and have articles that included d '''also''' as part of a word than just seperately. By the way, it was really hard to phrase this. {{User:DarkNight/sig}} 19:58, September 10, 2020 (EDT)

I get the feeling this happens with every wiki that is run by Porplemontage, including this one and the Kingdom Hearts wiki. {{User:Keyblade Master/sig}}
