Results for "[tele]phone box" include no correct tags #1

Searching for "telephone box" or "phone box" (both common British phrases) doesn't produce any tags related to telephone boxes, but does produce 71 irrelevant results. While the same phrases without the "box" added on the end do produce the desired results, the search ought to be able to cope with variations on the exact text of a tag.

The search is currently completely relying on the python "whoosh"-library. It seems that its default partial search functionality is not producing enough meaningful results. A prior test with NGRAM didn't look promising, but we will look further into this issue.
