Understanding Word Searches
When you search for words, the en-
cyclopedia searches first for
matches of the words in the titles of
articles.
If no matches are found in article
titles, it automatically searches for
matches in the articles themselves.
If no exact matches are found in ar-
ticles, the encyclopedia then
searches for synonyms and related
words.
Searches of more than one word
find matches regardless of the order
or proximity of the words. For ex-
ample, if you search for
space
travel
, you will find articles that have
the words
travel
and
space
in their
text or titles.
