The [[wp:OpenSearch_(specification)|OpenSearch specification]] - an open standard for publishing search results came first in '''2005'''. Ironically, it was developed by an Amazon subsidiary<ref>[[wp:A9.com|A9]] (short for Algorithm) The chief product was a browser toolbar.</ref>. OpenSearch was (and still is) a way for people to directly use search engines from their browser. In addition to web search results, users could get product search results from Amazon, encyclopedia results from Wikipedia, movie information from IMDb, and countless more. Famously, [[MediaWiki]] includes this capability in the software, which means that you can directly search any wiki site (not just Wikipedia) from your browser.

== Convert from Elasticsearch 7.x to OpenSearch 2.x ==

Since this site uses [[Elasticsearch]] for its search backend and also as the backend for [[Semantic MediaWiki]], we are following the WMF transition to use OpenSearch as a replacement. This is tracked in [https://github.com/freephile/meza/issues/133 Issue #133] on GitHub.
