Wikipedia:Searching

From Wiki 5A

Searching for a topic on Wiki 5A is easy. If you have a topic in mind, type it into the search box found on the left side of any wiki page. From there, you have two options: Go or Search.

What does Go do?

Once you have typed a topic into the search box, click Go. This will tell the wiki to search for the topic that most closely matches what you are searching for.

What does Search do?

Once you have typed a topic into the search box, click Search. This will tell the wiki to search all of its articles for the word or words you are searching for. It will give you a list of all articles that contain the word or words you are interested in.

What if an article doesn't exist?

If you are searching for a topic and it does not yet exist on our wiki, you could begin writing a new article for us! All you need is to have an account setup. If you are a fifth grader at Southwood Elementary, you should already have an account.

In the picture to the left, notice it says no results were found for matter, but you can create a new page. To create a new page on matter for our wiki, just click this link.
