Description
This is a feature request.
If the 'search' feature on https://government.github.com/community/ could somehow include data from the "About" field of each account, then search results would be better.
Here is a concrete example..
Search for "nebraska". You get one result in the "U.S. States" category. However, there are actually two: the `nelegislature` account should be in these search results.
When you view that account (https://github.com/nelegislature) you see that the word "nebraska" appears in more than one field. If those fields were included in search, this second account would be included in the results.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start at the search feature on government.github.com/community and inspect how account data is indexed and queried. Use the reported “nebraska” search and the nelegislature account as the check case; done means fields such as the account’s About information are searched and nelegislature appears in the results.
