Description Aude 2013-10-22 22:03:56 UTC 
Entity descriptions do not get indexed for search, nor do site link page names. This limits what is available for searching.

Comment 2 Aude 2013-10-23 00:44:29 UTC 
CirrusSearch (and likely the old search) considers size of the search text when ranking search results.  

This means that if we just put labels and aliases in search text. most items are similar. (although more translations help)

If we put site links and descriptions in, that will help a bit more with ranking when it comes to item size, and also searching for particular words or phrases that only appear in descriptions or site links.
Comment 3 Aude 2013-10-23 00:45:32 UTC 
claims could also by "textified" and put into the search text for full text searching.
Comment 4 Aude 2013-10-23 00:46:00 UTC
