Example: When I search for a User I have to specify the namespace 'User:'. This is not intuitive for most wiki visitors. We should be able to automatically search through all namespaces.

Possible solution: I've came across this plug-in: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SearchExtraNS

I'm not 100% sure that this does what I hope for, but if it does it might be worth trying out? Note that there is a drawback "A side-effect is that the advanced search will no longer restrict results to the namespaces you select, but will always be extended to such namespace too." I'm not sure how that will effect the way we use wiki now? (Or maybe there is a setting or something that we don't even need a plug-in :þ ?) --Ilja 12/09/2017 14:14
