- Search doesn't work for words of fewer than 4 characters.
- Search seems to be only marginal for partial words (e.g., "accessor" is not currently finding most articles that contain "accessors"; not sure why--this might be an indexing problem, as "accessor" finds many articles with that as a partial word).
- You can use "*" at the beginning or end of a word as a wildcard.
- For example, searching for "template" takes you to the article named template. If, however, you want to search for articles containing the word "template", search for "*template*".
