3. For some reason I miss the search sidebar. I would previously find an exact article and go to it, but also have a list at the side where I could see suggestions for something related. Eg: Physics. I could then browse from one to another with a click. Now I'm directly taken to an article if I click on the auto-suggest option, and directly taken to search if I press enter or press the search button. I have to go back to search if I want to go to another article instead of just clicking on the side. So I feel like we've gone from more options to less options.

: I think they are two different things. (1) did you try to open article in a new tab, with the middle-click? so you can keep both results and article open at the same time. (2) if an article title matchs exactly a search pattern it will be loaded per default... maybe that needs to be changed... [[User:Kelson|Kelson]] 19:20, 2 April 2011 (UTC)


4. In English version, the tooltip for the Search in Page button is still only "Search" and it can be misleading, users might press this button at the near left of the search bar instead of the one at the far right which they should if they're searching for an article.
