Prefer "original song" entries when searching for original versions on song submit/edit pages

Closed this issue · 2 comments

When adding/editing derivate works, searching for the original version should prefer showing "original song" -entries first.

For example, here the original version is shown on bottom of the search results (should be among the first results).

Available on the beta site, but does it make sense to prefer original song entries everywhere? I wonder if there is some performance penalty. Should we add an option like preferOriginal to the song API?

I think ranking the songs by popularity would help a lot, too -- I always run into issues adding covers of Kanaria's works because of the one-word titles, and sorting the songs by popularity would help a lot.
