One type of search link is a wikilink with all the capabilities of Search (search box), and with standard wikilink syntax: <kbd>{{nowrap | [<nowiki/>[Special:Search/''query''{{!}} ''label'']]}}</kbd>. So this search link will (1) [[help:navigation|navigate]]: [<nowiki/>[Special:search/Wales]] &rarr; [[Special:search/Wales]] or (2) search: <kbd>{{nowrap | [<nowiki/>[Special:search/~Wales {{!}} search/~Wales]]}}</kbd> &rarr; [[Special:search/~Wales|search/~Wales]] if you prefix a ~ tilde character.

Page title searches

  • {{Canned search}} – Link to automated search results for a given term
  • {{In title}} – Search for pages whose name contains given words
  • {{Look from}} – Search for pages whose name begins with a given word

For searches with exact matches, exact in upper and lower cases, or in punctuation marks, see Help:Searching § grep.
