Recently, I've begun creating some new tags to distinguish the different model types of Porsche 911 as they are different. Those are written like this: Porsche 911 (type) version, for example . But I see that when I search for "Porsche 996", the results are not accurate. In fact, in 60 wallpapers on the first page, only 3 of all of them are Porsche 911 type 996, in 120 wallpapers on the two first page, only 6 are that model, and 8 are 996 within 180 wallpapers. The different models, older and newer, are very different each to each other, so the results are not accurate, furthermore many are not even Porsche 911 but just other Porsche models. If one wants to have a 996 wallpaper on his desktop, he has to look for it between tens of other models within hundreds of wallpapers.
I also made some not necessary tags as I still don't know how do tags really work, and I know I messed it up, so I'm writting here before I'll mess more with it. When it'll be answered and changed, I'll begin to tag correctly other wallpapers that are not correctly tagged. My goal is to make results (for example 996), accurate and with all the wallpapers that weren't tagged yet.
So, here are the three matters of the topic.
- I wonder how do brackets affect tagging. I found that if you type a tag for a wallpaper, the suggestions disappear when you type a bracket in the tag. I think they are invisible to the system but I don't know.
- Wouldn't it be better if we remove the brackets from the tags I made? Or maybe rewrite them as this: "Porsche 911 version (type type)" like for example Porsche 911 GT2 RS (type 997)?
- How to make results more accurate?

Searching for the tag itself gives you exactly what you want.

Searching for "Porsche 996" will give you walls with 'Porsche' or '966' in any of the tags or title.

To accurately search for a particular tag, you must search by "tag:####" or put tag name in quotes, "Porsche 911 (996) GT2".

Thank you! Last matter solved.

I tried to search with quotes, and I found out that the results are the same when I put or remove the brackets, but the order is not the same. Those brackets work weirdly. I think they should be removed from my tags.

I get the exact same order with or without the brackets. I guess they are ignored.
