TemplateWizard: Template not found on Wikimedia Commons
Closed, ResolvedPublic2 Estimated Story PointsBUG REPORT

Description

A user reported this behavior on Wikimedia Commons:

  • I am using the classic wikitext editor.
  • I open the TemplateWizard to insert a template.
  • I type "Kulturdenkmal". I get an exhaustive list of template names. This list doesn't include the template "Kulturdenkmal Sachsen".

  • I keep typing, "Kulturdenkmal S". Now the list is empty.
  • Expected behavior: The templates "Kulturdenkmal Sachsen" and "Kulturdenkmal Sachsen-Anhalt" should have been displayed.

  • Even if I insert the full template name, the template often doesn't appear in the list.
  • When I gradually delete characters from my search, the template appears.

Event Timeline

I could reproduce it and made a screencast.

I looks like there is a gap between "Kulturdenkmal_S" and "Kulturdenkmal_Sac".

We also have the issue in visual editor.

In this example the result list is not empty but the result set is changing completly.

The user checked if the issue still occurred after the deployment:

Translation:

the behavior has not changed. But there is this change: when I enter "Kulturdenkmal S", a template "Kulturdenkmal Sachsen/en" appears for selection - but only this English template documentation. only with further letters also the "main template" for "Kulturdenkmal Sachsen" appears as well as further language versions and also the template "Kulturdenkmal Sachsen-Anhalt" with the language versions.
the offered templates are "wildly mixed up" there is no logical sorting for me. the display of the offered templates is still almost the same as in the screenshots sent yesterday.

Verified not fixed, the desired page should have shown up after "Kulturdenkmal S". As I remember we were also trying to filter out subpages.

We discovered that the most annoying use case, where only one result is returned and it's not the right one, mainly happens when the search API returns no results. In this case, we show the first prefix search result and nothing else. Our provisional suggestion is that in this case we should show all of the prefix search results, basically falling back to the previous behavior before our changes.

It looks like this is an issue that is already known for a while: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T85770.

Partly demoed today. Missing:

  • Fallback to 10 results is not yet visible on Wikimedia Commons. To be demoed later.
  • One of the 2 implementations is not 100% complete. A last patch is still missing.
    • The TemplateWizard was already changed from an adaptive approach to "always query 10 prefixsearch results".
    • The VisualEditor patch was not so easy to update. We merged the adaptive approach as an intermediate step. It's already better in all situations, just not "perfect".
