I've just been trying to look for images of Necrons in the gallery and the results are... interesting (http://www.dakkadakka.com/core/gallery-search.jsp?dq=necron)

A chunk of the results don't actually include the tag or title of necron. There are pictures of Dark Eldar, Chaos space marines, Grey knights, Dark elves and nurgle demon princes...

Yeah see what you mean. There is probably a strange tag merge going on somewhere, where an incorrect alias is used on a common tag. I'll try and track it down, but if you can identify any common tags amongst all the invalid search results, that would be a big help.

I will have a look and see what I can find from the front end. Thanks!

The common tags seem to be Warrior, Warriors and Lord. I assume the search is doing a bit of a fluffy search that includes necron related keyword breakdowns as well. I'm not sure how you'd get around such basic words like warrior and lord though

The Dakkajet/Marauder images were tagged with Destroyer. Now that has been removed, they don't appear in the results

Bingo, thanks for the hard work, that should do it. I can unmerge those terms now and stop it from being an issue. The search results should now correct themselves over time.

No worries. Thanks for fixing it
