It does seem to me that if there is an exact match on a category name, that should certainly be the first result returned. That should be trivial to implement.

@Aklapper: In short, you are seeing the same bug as I am, just a different symptom.

If you see "only the English caption" it's probably because you have only a Babel box for English. I have Babel boxes for 8 languages, so I see 8 languages. But with "Collapse captions" selected, we shouldn't be seeing any captions at all, just a thing to click to see captions.

Oh, yeah, for what it's worth: Window 7, Firefox (69.0.2).

virtually all ro.wp articles should also be in en.wp

I've had this affect me almost every time I try to access my watchlist in the last month. You may say it doesn't affect many users, but I say that the ones it affects are precisely those of us who are doing the most work.
