• What is happening with the current search toolbar at the bottom of the screen with the "Commons" and "Wikipedia" buttons?
• What resolution would you consider "high resolution"? AFAIK, the images we get are pretty good, we just select small versions of them. Commons is capable of serving thumb of almost any size, selecting the right size for the current device is something that would definitely be part of the real product but that was not considered for the prototype.

We are going to remove this. From an article(figma prototype) users will land on search screen.

Do we have any middle ground to choose from?

We are going to take care of this part in a separate ticket(https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T297130), this was decided in a team meeting.

@SBisson let me know your thoughts on following flows. I am thinking of proposing these. Also, please have a look at question related to showing more than 15 images as a search results.

Scenario 1 # If an editor keeps the search topic the same as the article, do the following.

• Search images in commons.
• Limit search results to 15 images.
• Show high-resolution images first.
• Allow selection of a maximum of 10 images.
• Show a warning message when users try to select more than 10 images.
• Use full-text search when a user inputs their topic of choice.

Scenario 2 # If an editor changes the search topic, do the following.

• If the search topic matches a Wikipedia article, show images from that article followed by images from commons.
• Limit search results to 15 images.
• Show high-resolution images first.
• Allow selection of a maximum of 10 images.
• Show a warning message when users try to select more than 10 images.
• Use full-text search when a user inputs their topic of choice.

Can we show more than 15 images without compromising the performance? Lazy loading comes to my mind.

Change 766807 had a related patch set uploaded (by Eamedina; author: Eamedina):

@SGautam_WMF just an fyi: I added a simple "No results" label consistent with design for the case when no images are found for user input. At least to start with, happy to update later if needed

Testing:

1. No text entered shows no results and high definition images are returned for a variety of search strings.

2. Regarding "full-text search", does this mean it only matches with images that have the complete text string used as search? An example below:

3. Requirement: Allow selection of a maximum of 10 images.

Result: User can select more than 10 images and proceed to create a Wikistory.

"full-text search" doesn't really make sense in the context of the image search API. I don't know what this was about but please ignore.

3. Requirement: Allow selection of a maximum of 10 images.

The 10-page limit should be in T296494: Be able to create story with up to 10 pages

Thanks, Stephane.

I will move this ticket to Design review.
