Groupprops:Searching

Searching for something?

Listed below are some alternatives to using the search bar.

Theme-based search
Suppose you know that the term you are looking for is related to a particular theme. Then, you can try to locate the term in the category affiliated to that theme. To figure out the theme, check out:

Category:Themes

The category of terms (respectively facts) for a given theme is named Terms related to themename or Facts related to themename. You can take a listing of this whole category to search.

Alternatively, you can restrict search to items within this category.

You can also combine this with other search criteria. To do so, in addition to whatever other text you are searching for, add the legend "termrelatedto|themename". However, this may not give all finds because other templates may be used for inclusion in the given theme.
