Project Name: SisterSearch

Purpose: For development, we need a vanilla MediaWiki instance with a development and debugging environment to minimize platform issues

Wikitech username of requestor: Gryllida

Brief description: Interface to expose inter-project search results on every page, to improve UX, cross-wiki reader and editor engagement. See sketches below.

Special:Search Proposed:

   +---------+  +-------+   +-------+    +------------+   <-- NEW tabs for project selection 
   | Encyclo |  | Books |   | Media |    | Dictionary |   Tabs would be greyed or coloured if the current page title exists on the sister project.
   |          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^+
   | Type search query here ....                                                     |
   +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

Wiki page Proposed:

                                              "Foo" * *  talk prefs watchlist logout
   
   +---------+  +------+   +------+         +---------+
   | Read    |  | Talk |   | Edit |         | History |  [\/] [ Type search query here... ]
   |          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
   |  DOG                                                  ^-- NEW Dropdown for project selection
   |                                                           Possibly 75% transparency clickable sister project
   |   Dog is an animal ...                                    favicon hovering below search box if page title exists.
   |   ..........................................................

Or we could try a merged configuration - move search box to the top for both wiki page and special search:

   +---------+  +------+   +-------+    +------------+   <-- NEW tabs for project selection
   | Encyclo |  | News |   | Media |    | Dictionary |       Tabs would be greyed or coloured if the current page title exists on the sister project.
   |          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^+
   | Type search query here ....                                                     |
   +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
   
   +---------+  +------+   +------+         +---------+
   | Read    |  | Talk |   | Edit |         | History |    "Foo" * *  [\/]  <-- (Dropdown for talk/prefs/watchlist/logout)
   |          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
   |  DOG
   |  
   |   Dog is an animal ...
