weighted higher would give better results.  It may be also be worth us
prioritizing group names higher and/or putting "data" as a stop word for us
(one we ignore).

Thanks for the feedback.

Hello,<br><br>The issue here is that using &quot;Journalism&quot; as a term=
 in the query is causing a odd error.<br>The search tries to prioritize thi=
ngs in titles and it also does stemming of Journalism to Journal, so anythi=
ng with Journal(s) in the title is being moved ahead in prioirty.=A0 Also &=
quot;data&quot; is so common that it does not help that much.<br>

Best solution for you is to put it in quotes &quot;data journalism&quot=
; i.e <a href=3D"http://thedatahub.org/dataset?q=3D%22Data+Journalis=
m%22">http://thedatahub.org/dataset?q=3D%22Data+Journalism%22</a> Fr=
om this it seems like having another field with the unstemmed terms weighte=
d higher would give better results.=A0 It may be also be worth us prioritiz=
ing group names higher and/or putting &quot;data&quot; as a stop word for u=
s (one we ignore).

<br>Thanks for the feedback.<br><br>David<br><br><br><br><div class=3D"gmai=
