Untuk Mencari dalam Wikipedia:

  • Akan selalu ada kotak pencarian kecil di sisi layar dengan tulisan cari, diikuti dengan Tuju ke dan Cari. Cukup ketikkan kata-kata yang ingin anda cari kedalaman kotak pencarian dan tekan tombol Enter pada keyboard, atau, klik Tuju ke / Cari.

Tips yang paling penting, Jangan hanya memasukkan Hanya satu kata saja. Cobalah terlebih dahulu mencari tanpa menggunakan tanpa tanda petik. Jika hasil yang diberikan tidak cukup bagus, tambahkan sebanyak mungkin kata diluar tanda petik atau tambahkan beberapa kata lain untuk mempersempit pencarian.

Bagian dari halaman ini telah disalin ke meta:Help:Searching dan diadaptasi pada MediaWiki secara umum. Jika anda ingin menyunting kalimat yang ada, bandingkan kedua halaman tersebut terlebih dahulu, agar suntingan yang diberikan menjadi suntingan yang terbaik


Mesin pencari luar

Berbagai macam mesin pencari disediakan oleh domain-pencari, yang mengijinkan anda mencari Wikipedia secara spesifik. Pencarian berdasar pada teks yang ditampilkan oleh browser, sehingga markup wiki menjadi tidak relevan. Berdasarkan pada browser yang anda gunakan, anda dapat juga menggunakan tools yang mengijinkan anda mencari Wikipedia menggunakan bookmarklet.

Secara umum, mesin pencari luar memberikan hasil yang lebih cepat daripada sistem pencarian Wikipedia sendiri. Bagaimanapun juga, dikarenakan penyimpanan mesin pencari berdasar pada saat halaman situs tersebut terindeks, hasil pencarian dimungkinkan tidak akan menghasilkan halaman yang baru dibuat. Sama halnya juga dengan versi pada penyimpanan mesin pencari tidak "sebaru" seperti pranala internal pada Wikipedia itu sendiri. Dan juga, pada saat mendapatkan artikel Wikipedia menggunakan pencarian biasa, mirrors and forks dari isi Wikipedia seringkali pada peringkat tinggi daripada artikel Wikipedia aktual dikarenanan teknik optimasi mesin pencari.

Permasalahan ini kemungkinan dapat berkurang jika menggunakan mesin pencari yang memproses Wikipedia secara berbeda:

  • Yahoo! menyertakan Wikipedia sebagai bagian dari isi program akuisisi dan memiliki datafeed secara regular.
  • Clusty mengambil dan memproses database secara regular, membuat abstraksi, gambar kecil, dan informasi dari Pengalihan, disambiguasi, dan Kategori secara otomatis.

Google

Dengan mengikuti link di bawah ini, anda dapat menggunakan mesin pencari Google untuk mencari Wikipedia - dengan menggunakan semua bahasa, atau dengan bahasa inggris saja. Google akan mengindex nama pencariannya.

Jika anda sering menggunakan Google sebagai alat untuk mencari, pertimbangkanlah untuk menginstall Google Toolbar. Menggunakan tombol "search this site" akan mengijinkan anda untuk mencari Wikipedia dalam bahasa Inggris. Alat tambahan Google yang sah adalah hanya untuk Windows dengan Internet Explorer, tetapi ada juga unofficial version for Mozilla yang termasuk open source dan juga berkerja untuk semua operating systems yang dimana memakai Mozilla, seperti Windows, Linux dan Mac OS X.

Yahoo!

Dengan mengikuti link dibawah ini, anda bisa menggunakan mesin pencari Yahoo! untuk mencari Wikipedia - dalam semua bahasa atau Bahasa Inggris saja.

Kalau anda sering mencari lewat Yahoo!, anda bisa mencoba menginstal Yahoo! Companion Toolbar. Dengan menggunakan tombol "Search Only the Current Site" anda dapat dengan cepat mencari Wikipedia versi bahasa Inggris. Yahoo! Companion Toolbar yang resmi hanya dapat digunakan dengan Windows dengan Internet Explorer dan Mozilla.

Clusty

Dengan mengikuti link dibawah ini, anda bisa menggunakan mesin pencari Clusty untuk mencari Wikipedia - dalam semua bahasa atau Bahasa Inggris saja.

Kalau anda sering mencari lewat Clusty, anda bisa mencoba menginstal Clusty Toolbar (beta). Dengan menggunakan sumber pencari "Encyclopedia" anda dapat dengan cepat mencari Wikipedia versi bahasa Inggris. Clusty Toolbar tersedia untuk Windows dengan Internet Explorer dan Mozilla Firefox (beta).

Fasilitas pencarian dalam Wikipedia

Fitur pencarian dalam Wikipedia terdapat di kotak yang ada di setiap halaman tidak bisa diakses selama jam sibuk atau saat aktivitas server sedang tinggi (yang bisa berlangsung selama beberapa hari). Berikut adalah sedikit petunjuk untuk menggunakan fasilitas pencarian dengan lebih efektif (lihat juga Wikipedia:Panduan preferensi pengguna, bagian "Seting hasil pencarian", dan Wikipedia:Tombol tuju).

Membatasi hasil

Wikipedia's default search mode will turn up results with any of the words in your query. For instance, search engine turns up many results containing only "search" but not "engine" or only "engine" but not "search" in addition to the ones you probably wanted, which contain both words.

To limit to results that include all words, put a "+" at the beginning of each word: +search +engine returns only pages containing both words, like Google's default mode.

You can also do a phrase search by enclosing words in quotes: "search engine" turns up a smaller set of results, which not only have both words but have them in order.

To exclude results that include some word, put a "-" at the beginning: search -engine

Hindari kata umum dan singkat

If your search terms include a common "stop word" (such as "the", "one", "your", "more", "right", "while", "when", "who", "which", "such", "every", "about") it will be ignored by the search system. If you're trying to do a phrase search or all-words-only search, this may result in returning nothing at all. Short numbers, and words that appear in half of all articles, will also not be found. In this case, drop those words and rerun the search.

See Wikipedia:Common words, searching for which is not possible for the stop words filtered out by the database. From there one can at least go to an article with a stop word as title. Searching for the combination of one or more words and the common word "not" gives a database query syntax error due to a bug in the software.

Search is case-insensitive only for the first word of the entry

The searches for "fortran", "Fortran" and "FORTRAN" all return the same results. If a multi-word article has a name including a mixture of capitalized letters in any word other than the first, searching is not case insensitive. For example, consider the article French and Indian Wars. A search for 'french and indian wars' will not find this article. However, a search for 'French and Indian Wars' will find it, as will a search for 'french and Indian Wars'. Redirects can be used to work around this problem. For example, searches for any capitalization variant of 'Isle of Wight' match Isle of wight which redirects the user to the actual article named Isle of Wight.

Wildcards

You can use some limited wildcards if you really want to, but I forget offhand what. Look up "fulltext search" on http://www.mysql.com/ and look down under 'boolean search' for the details. However, wildcard searches are slower, so go easy on the poor server.

Words with special characters

In a search for a word with a diaeresis, such as Sint Odiliënberg, it depends whether this ë is stored as one character or as "ë". In the first case one can simply search for Odilienberg (or Odiliënberg); in the second case it can only be found by searching for Odili, euml and/or nberg. This is actually a bug that should be fixed -- the entities should be folded into their raw character equivalents so all searches on them are equivalent. See also Wikipedia:Special characters.

Words in single quotes

If a word appears in an article with single quotes, you can only find it if you search for the word with quotes. Since this is rarely desirable it is better to use double quotes in articles, for which this problem does not arise. See the manual of style for more info.

An apostrophe is identical to a single quote, therefore Mu'ammar can be found searching for exactly that (and not otherwise). A word with apostrophe s is an exception in that it can be found also searching for the word without the apostrophe and the s.

Namespaces searched by default

The search only applies to the namespaces selected in the preferences. To search the other namespaces check or uncheck the tickboxes in "Search in namespaces" box found at the bottom of a search results page. Depending on the browser, a box may still be checked from a previous search, but without being effective any longer! To make sure, uncheck and recheck it.

Searching the image namespace means searching the image descriptions, i.e. the first parts of the image description pages.

Redirects can be excluded

Check or uncheck the tickbox "List redirects" in "Search in namespaces" box found at the bottom of a search results page.

The source text is searched

The source text (what one sees in the edit box, also called wiki text) is searched. This distinction is relevant for piped links, for Wikipedia:interlanguage links (to find links to Chinese articles, search for zh, not for Zhongwen), special characters (if ê is coded as ê it is found searching for ecirc), etc.

Delay in updating the search index

For reasons of efficiency and priority, very recent changes are not always immediately taken into account in searches.

At the moment, the search engine uses an index that isn't updated at all. This is temporary.

NB: Search has inconsistencies

A search for "Syrian Church of the East", may direct the user to a page about the Calvary Baptist church in Manhattan!

After searching for "Chaldean Church", a user reported that wiki made him attend the "Uniting Church in Australia".

Earlier, a search for "neighbourhood watch" sent users to a "neighbourhood watch" titled page. A search for the US-spelled "neighborhood watch" persistently and automatically sent users to a page titled "tornado watch".

The search feature is not guaranteed to be reliable, and may return unexpected and unintelligent results.

There is a meta-search available that allows you to search different language Wikipedias at the same time.

Multi-lingual Wikipedia search (disabled)

You can also do this using Google.

Listed below are ways to search Wikipedia with Mozilla-based browsers, including Mozilla Suite, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape 6 and 7, and Beonex Communicator.

Search Wikipedia from the sidebar search tab or address bar

Works with: Mozilla Suite, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape 6/7, Beonex Communicator.

Mozilla, Beonex Communicator, and Netscape 6 & 7 come with a sidebar that allows a user to search the Wikipedia site, and Firefox has a toolbar item to do the same. To install the search plugin that tells Mozilla how to search Wikipedia, do the following:

  1. Go to one of the following sources of Wikipedia search plugins. The Mycroft plugins are out of date, and plugins from the second source may work better.
    1. Original search plugins from Mycroft
    2. Updated search plugins
  2. There are versions for many languages, so pick the language local to your area.
  3. If JavaScript is enabled, clicking on the name of the search plugin will automatically install the search plugin.
  4. If you can't install the search plugin automatically, the second source above lets you right-click on the plugin and save it to disk, or download a ZIP file containing all available plugins. Save the downloaded .src file in the searchplugins directory where Mozilla is installed and restart the browser to use the new plugin.

To make Wikipedia your default search engine in Mozilla, Beonex Communicator, and Netscape 6/7:

  1. Go to Edit, Preferences.
  2. Expand the Navigator tree and choose Internet Search.
  3. Choose Wikipedia as your default search engine.

With Wikipedia selected as your default engine, searches can be conducted via the search sidebar tab, search box, or the web address bar.


Search Wikipedia using a bookmarklet

Works with: Mozilla Suite, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape 6/7, Beonex Communicator.

Wikipedia can also be searched via a bookmarklet.

In Mozilla Firefox, follow these steps:

  1. Right click in the search field at the top of the page, and select "Add a Keyword for this Search".
  2. Enter "Wikipedia Quicksearch" for the name.
  3. Enter "w" (without the quotes) for the keyword.
  4. Change the bookmark folder if you wish, and click "Add".

In Mozilla Suite, Netscape 6/7 and Beonex Communicator, follow these steps:

  1. Right click on the following web address and select "Bookmark this link": http://en.wiki-indonesia.club/wiki/Special:Search?search=%s
  2. Go to Bookmarks, Manage Bookmarks. Choose the bookmark you have just created. Highlight the Bookmark and click Properties.
  3. In the dialogue that comes up, put a lowercase w in the keyword box.
  4. Click OK and close the properties box, then close the bookmark manager.

To search, go to the web address bar, enter "w SEARCH_QUERY" (without the quotes), and press enter.

Search Wikipedia via an update to prefs.js

Works with: K-Meleon.

K-Meleon has a search button that can be used to search Google. Wikipedia can also be searched. To switch search engines do these things:

  1. Close K-Meleon.
  2. Open up prefs.js with a text editor. The file should be in your K-Meleon\Profiles\PROFILE_NAME\RANDOM_STRING.slt\ directory.
  3. Add this line, and save prefs.js.
user_pref("kmeleon.general.searchEngine", "http://en.wiki-indonesia.club/wiki/Special:Search?search="); 

Open up K-Meleon and press the search button to search Wikipedia. To go back to Google or to use another search service, edit prefs.js and delete this line:

user_pref("kmeleon.general.searchEngine", "http://en.wiki-indonesia.club/wiki/Special:Search?search="); 

Make sure K-Meleon is closed before editing prefs.js.

Advanced: Wikipedia search field for Opera browser

Both Opera 6 and 7 use a customizable text file called search.ini. This file should only be edited while Opera is not running. The following example replaces one of the existing pre-defined search engines. It is up to the user to avoid conflicts of shortcut key (key=). By default 'w' is taken by the download.com search, so either this or the Wikipedia one should be changed. Furthermore the 'Search Engine ##' should be replaced with a free number: '12' is free by default. The Search.ini editor makes editing trivial (see external link).

[Search Engine ##]
Name=&Wikipedia
URL=http://www.wiki-indonesia.club/w/wiki.phtml?search=%s
Query=
Key=w
Is post=0
Has endseparator=0
Encoding=utf-8
Search Type=8

Most importantly, in 7.0, you should back up your customized search.ini because the file is overwritten by the Opera installer. This is no longer true in 7.10 and later.
In Opera 6 and 7.0, the menu accelerator letter is defined by the & in the name. In current versions the accelerator is automatically generated and may no longer be the same as the key.

More information (External Links)

7.50 Preview

With the current 7.50 Preview a new kind of search has been added, which no longer requires manual editing. This will create a button on the mainbar, which can then be put anywhere you wish, even in the start panel.
See http://members.chello.nl/b.kroonspecker/opera/buttons.html for two Wikipedia search buttons and more info.

Opera 8

Opera 8 Appears to take a copy of the "search.ini" and load it into an internal buffer of some type. After editing the file with your new entry you must change the "File Version" at the top of the file to allow for your changes to be seen in the browser.

Searching with TomeRaider

After downloading the Wikipedia:TomeRaider database one can search the Wikipedia version offline. One can also search for parts of words.

Searching the page history

To search the text that appears only in the page history, you must export the text to XML format first.

If you cannot find an appropriate page on Wikipedia

If there is no appropriate page on Wikipedia, consider creating a page, since you can edit Wikipedia right now. Or consider adding what you were looking for to the Requested articles page. Or if you have a question to be answered by Wikipedia, ask it at the Reference desk. [[da:Wikipedia:Hvordan s%F8ger jeg i Wikipedia]]
