Neutrality Dispute[edit]

This article provides a sustained argument over the quality of the search service Wikisearch. However I feel that initially it should provide an uncritical explanation of what Wikisearch is and does, as well as its aims. Then a designated 'criticism' section could evaluate the effectiveness and deal with some of the bad points of the service. Jpolchar 22:13, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I understand the neutrality point, and that mightbe an issue, but i think in this case the section sucks because it is complete and utter original research. It is not that it doesn't cite sources, it is that it reads like an empirical experiment by someone. For this reason I am removing that until a reliably sourced criticism of the Wikiseek (which sucks, BTW). Then we can get into the neutrality argument.--Cerejota 03:24, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I did minor changes to neutralize. The review under external links reads like an advertisement, but I can't find a better one yet. And Wikiseek sucks by the way, I've never seen such irrelevant results. $20 says it bombs, any takers? --Harlequence 08:54, 14 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, it's been a while, but thanks for your help guys. The article is now miles better. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jpolchar (talk • contribs) 20:33, 19 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

We’ve decided to take Wikiseek offline. Thank you so much for using it.[edit]

Permission[edit]

Why is it notable to mention that Wikiseek was "granted permission by the Wikimedia Foundation to index the Wikipedia website"? Anyone can index Wikipedia by downloading the dumps and because it's free content. --Nezek (talk) 16:40, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
