WAN Show Search is even better!

November 22, 2024 at 4:00 PM

Hello! I am very excited to announce that WAN Show search is now even better than it was before.
I want The WAN Show Search to be the go-to option for finding anything that happened on the WAN show, and to do that well, I need your feedback. If you have any issues, suggestions, or other feedback, please let me know!


Show Transcripts

I have downloaded and indexed transcripts from nearly every WAN show that has ever happened. The caveat is that they are from YouTube's auto-generated captions, so they are not the best quality, but they are good enough to be useful for search.

Currently, the transcript result will be linked to the show's page, but there is no timestamp link to jump to that part of the video. However, I hope to add this feature very soon.

Show Titles

I have also indexed the titles of all shows (at least all shows that have titles... some old shows don't have a title at all)

Merch Messages

You can also search for Merch Messages in the same spot. I have it disabled by default because merch messages usually aren't what people are looking for here, but just in case you are looking for them, you can search for them here, too.

Topics

As with the original version of the search, you can search topics using NoKi's timestamps. Huge thank you to NoKi for your dedication and consistent quality of timestamps over the past 3 years (over 10,000!).

Or any combination of the above

You can also search for any combination of the above categories using the checkboxes below the search box.



I hope that at least some of you are as excited about this as I am. I have been wanting to have something like this for years, and now I am finally able to provide it to the community.

As always, if you have any issues, suggestions, or other feedback, please let me know!
