Standardising search terms

Standardising search terms

I'm looking at making some changes to improve searches.

For example, some issues might include contents using the term "Volkswagen" and some might use "VW", but if you search for one, you don't get results for the other.

So, I am putting together a list of these types of terms which I will standardise, so that a search for one will bring up the results for both.

So far I have the following terms:

* Volkswagen and VW
* Formula 1, Formula One and F1
* Grand Prix and GP
* General Motors and GM
* GMH and Holden
* Holden Special Vehicles and HSV
* America and USA
* Chev, Chevy and Chevrolet

I also have the option to standardise makes and models that have different names in some markets, for example:

* Miata and MX5
* Acura and Honda

If you can think of any other terms that should be standardised, please reply here.
