[edit] To do

  1. Create new articles so that the ugly red links go away.
  2. Create an information retrieval category and add relevant documents to it.
  3. Check list of querying techniques to make sure it's complete (it isn't).
  4. Explain that search engines use varying methods to express boolean operators, etc.

[edit] Search algorithm

Google's PageRank algorithm is referred to as a search algorithm, but isn't it a relevance ranking algorithm, not a search algorithm? Nurg 01:58, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Agree that it is a relevance ranking algorithm, but it is used along with a basic vector-space model in the case of Google to provide a search algorithm. I would rather not make a direct reference though, it would be better to cite citation analysis, citation index, or Bibliometrics. Josh Froelich 14:15, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
