Help:Searching

Searching in Proteopedia works in the same way as does searching in Wikipedia, with the addition of some special operators to enhance "full text search".

Full Text Search Operators

*	The asterisk serves as the truncation (or wildcard) operator.
+	A leading plus sign indicates that this word must be present in every page returned.
-	A leading minus sign indicates that this word must not be present in any page returned.
"	Double quotes at the beginning and end of a phrase, matches only pages that contain the complete phrase, as it was typed.
	By default (when neither + nor - is specified) the word is optional, but the pages that contain it are rated higher.

• Wikipedia: Searching. A detailed explanation.
