Version:Beta 0.2.5
Target Version:N/A
Summary:Cannot Exclude Source
Description:As suggested at the bottom of the 'How To Search' ( https://gelbooru.com/index.php?page=wiki&s=view&id=25921 ), excluding source results does not work.

Expected: `-source:*` produces no results.

Result: `-source:*` does not alter the results in any form.
Additional Info:Expected/result applies to any specified source, not just a single wildcard. *Inclusive* source querying works as intended.

Mysteriously, it would appear `-source:*` *did* affect the results in some unidentifiable way after looking through the results again. Most of those remaining images still have a source, however.

For whatever reason I decided to check with `user:danbooru` as a filter. It seems that if an image is uploaded by Danbooru, excluding the source will not prevent it from showing up, but only sometimes, for some Danbooru results are still removed??

Okay, it would appear `source:*` is also broken, as it is removing images from the search results even if they have a source.
