When I do an "Advanced Search" on author "Agatha Christie" I get the kind of output I would expect.
But when I do an "Advanced Search" on author "Ernest Hemingway" strangely I get a different kind of "very verbose" output which I would not expect.
I'm not seeing this, James. Could you either describe more fully, or provide a screen shot? I went here: https://dev.gutenberg.org/ebooks/results Clicked "Advanced search" Put "Ernest Hemingway" in the Author box (no quotes) Clicked "Search" Got two hits to #61085 and 59603. And
In general I would expect the format of the output results of a search to not depend on the author's name I submit -- I find that "feature" confusing.
We found that PostgreSQL does some stemming that is sometimes surprising and quite inaccurate. If I could get a few good examples, we will add these as "issues" (i.e., "to do" items) in the search software: https://github.com/gutenbergtools/autocat3 Thanks, - Greg
