Editing Help:Searching (section)

== Search string syntax ==

Search is case insensitive, that is, upper and lowercase is ignored.

Search "folds" character families, matching similar-looking letters across alphabets, to match foreign terms. So, you don't have to type in [[diacritical]] letters, and your terms will still match. For example, a search on [[Citroen|{{kbd|Citroen}}]] will also match [[Citroën|{{samp|Citroën}}]], and [[Aeroskobing|{{kbd|Aeroskobing}}]] matches [[Ærøskøbing|{{samp|Ærøskøbing}}]].

Characters that are not numbers or letters (punctuation marks, brackets and slashes, math and other symbols) are generally ignored. For example, {{kbd|Credit&nbsp;(finance)}} will return articles with the words {{samp|credit}} and {{samp|finance}}, ignoring the parentheses, unless an article with exact title [[Credit (finance)|<code>Credit (finance)</code>]] exists. Similarly, a search for the string {{kbd|{{!}}LT{{!}}}} (letters {{kbd|LT}} between two pipe symbols) will only return articles with {{samp|lt}}. In order to search for terms that contain non-alphanumeric characters, a [[#insource:|regex search]] must be used instead (using the {{kbd|\}} [[escape character]] if required); for example, {{kbd|insource:/\{{!}}LT\{{!}}/}} will successfully return all instances of {{samp|{{!}}LT{{!}}}}.

The source text is what is searched, which is not always what is displayed on the screen. This distinction is relevant for [[Wikipedia:Piped link|piped links]], for [[Wikipedia:interlanguage link|interlanguage links]] (to find links to Chinese articles, search for {{kbd|zh}}, not for {{kbd|Zhongwen}}), [[Help:Special characters|special characters]] (if {{samp|ê}} is coded as <code>&amp;ecirc;</code> it is found searching for {{kbd|ecirc}}), etc. 

{{crossref|pw=y|For [[regex]] searches, see the [[#insource:|<code>insource:</code>]] parameter below.}}

=== Namespaces ===
{{anchor|Namespace}}
The default search domain is the article space, but any namespace may be specified in a query. 

At the search results page, any number of [[WP:NAMESPACE|namespaces]] can be specified, and [[Wikipedia:Users|users]] can keep those namespaces as their own default search domain. Partial namespace searches can be made by specifying the initial letters of a page name.

=== Spaces ===

The use of spaces is, in general, intuitive. Unnecessary spaces, and all non-alphanumeric characters except <code>"</code> are ignored, which makes for flexibility; it is simplest and best to avoid typing unnecessary spaces, although the tolerance for grey space simplifies copying and pasting search terms without the need for cleanup. For example, {{kbd|credit card}} is obviously reasonable; copying and pasting {{kbd|<nowiki>[[Credit(?!)card]]</nowiki>}} is equivalent and convenient; {{kbd|"credit card""payment card"}} is actually correct and minimal, but {{kbd|"credit card" "payment card"}} is an intuitive equivalent.

Any of the following characters will be treated as a [[space character]]: <code><nowiki>!@#$%^&()_+-=~`{}[]|\:;'<>,.?/</nowiki></code>. The double quotation mark <code>"</code> is not one of these characters, because it has the special purpose of specifying an exact phrase search, and <code>-</code> and <code>!</code> can be used to exclude results if either occurs at the beginning of a word or phrase (see more below). We use the term ''grey-space'' instead of ''[[Whitespace character|whitespace]]'' here to include the space character itself and all these characters. Multiple [grey-]spaces are equivalent to a single space.

Grey-space is ignored between the words of exact-phrase searches, between adjacent items in the query, and in starting characters of the search box query. All filters can have grey-space between them without affecting search results. Most operators, such as <code>intitle:</code> and <code>incategory:</code>, ignore unnecessary spaces, or grey-space, after the colon.

Where spaces are significant: single search terms cannot have embedded spaces; {{kbd|work space}}, {{kbd|"work space"}}, and {{kbd|workspace}} are all different. The particular keywords <code>prefix</code> and <code>insource</code> must be followed immediately by a colon <code>:</code> and their arguments, without intervening [grey-]spaces.

=== Special characters ===
{{shortcut|H:SPCHAR}}

For [[regex]] searches, see the [[#insource:|<code>insource:</code>]] parameter below.

==== Double quotes for exact phrase search ====
{{anchor|double quotes}}

A [[phrase]] can be matched by enclosing it in double quotes, {{kbd|"like this"}}. Double quotes can define a single search term that contains spaces. For example, {{kbd|{{Search link|"holly dolly"}}}} where the space is quoted as a character, differs much from {{kbd|{{Search link|holly dolly}}}} where the space is interpreted as a logical AND.

==== Suffixed tilde character for fuzzy search ====
{{anchor|fuzzy search|respell}}<!-- Please leave anchors in place. Section redirects point to them. -->
{{short|H:FUZZY}}

[[Approximate string matching|Spelling relaxation]] is requested by suffixing a tilde {{kbd|~}}, like {{kbd|this~}} to match results like {{samp|thus}} and {{samp|thins}}. It covers any two character-changes for any character except the first: it returns addition, exchange, or subtraction. This search technique is sometimes called a "sounds-like" search. For example, searching for {{kbd|{{search link|charlie~ parker~}}}} returns {{samp|Charlie Parker}}, {{samp|Charles Palmer}}, {{samp|Charley Parks}}, etc.

==== Prefixed tilde character for forced search ====
{{anchor|forced search}}<!-- Please leave anchors in place. Section redirects point to them. -->
{{short|H:FORCE}}

To force a search rather than navigate directly to a matching page, include a tilde character {{kbd|~}} anywhere in the query. It always takes you to the search results page, never jumping to a single title. For example, the misspelling {{kbd|similiar}} is [[WP:Redirect|redirected]] to the [[:Similarity]]<!--Intentional disambiguation link.--> article (or, in this case, disambiguation page); but prefixing a tilde, {{kbd|{{search link|~similiar prefix:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|~similiar}}}}, lists pages containing that misspelling.

==== Prefixed hyphen or exclamation point for exclusion ====
{{anchor|exclusion|hyphen}}<!-- Please leave anchors in place. Section redirects point to them. -->
{{shortcut|H:EXCLUDE}} 

Pages matching a search term can be excluded by prefixing an exclamation point ({{kbd|!}}) or a hyphen ({{kbd|-}}) to the term. This is the [[logical NOT]]. For example, {{kbd|{{Search link|credit card -"credit card"}}}} finds all articles with {{samp|credit}} and {{samp|card}} {{em|except}} those with the phrase {{samp|credit card}}.

==== Wildcard characters ====
{{anchor|wildcard|wildcard search}}<!-- Please leave anchors in place. Section redirects point to them. -->
{{shortcut|H:WLD}}

The two wildcard characters are {{kbd|*}} and {{kbd|\?}}, and both can come in the middle or end of a word. The escaped question mark stands for one character and the star stands for any number of characters. Because many users ask questions when searching, question marks are ignored by default, and the escaped question mark ({{kbd|\?}}) must be used for a wildcard.

{{clear}}

==== Non-alphabetic characters ====
For non-alphabetic characters, regex expressions are needed. {{crossref|pw=y|(See [[#insource:|<code>insource:</code>]] below.)}}

==== Logical operators ====
{{shortcut|H:BOOLEAN|H:LOPS}}

The search engine supports {{em|limited}} boolean logic in searches. [[Negation|Logical NOT (negation)]] can be indicated by a "{{kbd|-}}" (minus sign) or a "{{kbd|!}}" (exclamation point) character prefixed to a search term, or by the {{kbd|NOT}} keyword.

Parentheses {{kbd|(…)}} are ignored by the search engine and have no effect.

Search terms are implicitly joined by [[Logical conjunction|logical AND (conjunction)]]. For example {{kbd|"credit card" housecat}} searches for pages containing both "credit card" and "housecat". An {{kbd|OR}} operator is supported, but will only give intuitive results (corresponding to [[logical disjunction]]) if ''all'' search terms are separated by {{kbd|OR}} (e.g. {{kbd|red OR green OR blue}} has the expected behaviour, but {{kbd|red OR green blue}} does not). {{kbd|OR}} also does not behave predictably with special keywords (like <code>intitle:</code>) or namespaces. {{crossref|pw=y|(See [[:mw:Help:CirrusSearch/Logical operators]] for a more detailed explanation.)}}

=== Parameters ===
{{anchor|Parameter searches}}<!-- Please leave anchors in place. Section redirects point to them. -->
{{about|search parameters|template parameters|Help:Template#Parameters|section=yes}}
{{shortcut|H:PARAM}}

Parameters function as name filters, each followed by the search term it operates on. Their search term may be a word or a phrase. The main parameters are '''<code>{{var|namespace}}:</code>''', '''<code>intitle:</code>''', '''<code>insource:</code>''', '''<code>incategory:</code>''', and '''<code>prefix:</code>''' ({{var|namespace}} as used here isn't literal – use the name of the actual namespace desired).

<code>prefix:</code> differs from the other parameters in that it can only be used at the end of a search string.

A single <code>{{var|namespace}}:</code> filter can go first, and a single <code>prefix:</code> filter can go last.
<!-- Note that the [[space character]]s are {{em|not}} very important except around <code>prefix:</code>. The query string of <code>incategory:</code> is a [[WP:Page name|page name]] (or "a category name"), and in a page name, the [[underscore]] <code>_</code> is equivalent to space, and so underscore will suffice instead of the double quotes around the page name with spaces in it. The <code>intitle:</code> query is not a page name, but it also treats space and underscore equally, treating them as AND. (It even treats multiple spaces, and even mixes of spaces and underscores that way.) All filters can have between them multiple spaces (or underscores) (or a mix) without affecting search results.  Multiple spaces are treated as a single space everywhere except around <code>prefix:</code>. (Namely, within and around Boolean operated terms, even if inside double quotes; in between adjacent filters; in page names; in starting characters of the search box query; in between the colon and the prefix parameter names <code>incategory:</code>, <code>intitle:</code>, or <code>all:</code>, or after that colon). <code>prefix:</code> or a namespace name (or its alias) can have no space between its name and the following colon. And remember that <code>prefix:</code> is entirely literal after its colon, and so accepts no space character, except as a literal space.-->

==== <code><var>namespace</var>:</code> ====
{{anchor|namespace name:}}
Only articles are searched by default because most users are only readers. Given only at the {{em|beginning}} of the query, a [[Wikipedia:Namespace|namespace]] name followed by a colon limits search results to that namespace. It is a filter without a query string. The namespace can also be selected at [[Special:Search]].

Namespace [[WP:Namespace#Aliases|aliases]] like <code>WP:</code> or <code>wp:</code> instead of <code>Wikipedia:</code> are accepted.

<code>User:</code> will normally go directly to a user page even if it doesn't exist. To search userspace, use [[Special:Search]] or click "{{int:searchsuggest-containing}}" below the search box.

<code>all:</code> will search all namespaces.

To search multiple namespaces but not all, use "{{int:advancedsearch-namespaces-search-in}}" at [[Special:Search]].

==== all: ====
{{shortcut|H:ALL}}
{{anchor|All|all}}

Prefixing <code>all:</code> (in lower case) searches all namespaces, sorted by namespace, and with substring matches at the end.{{efn|1=The upper-cased <code>All:</code> was previously documented as distinct from <code>all:</code>, in doing such namespace sorting while the lower-case version did not. But {{as of|2024|lc=y|post=,}} <code>All:</code> is no longer functional, and tends to produce unexpected results (e.g. no matches, or those containing the word {{samp|all}}).}}

==== <code>intitle:</code> ====
{{anchor|intitle}}
{{shortcut|H:INTIT|H:INTITLE}}

[[Help:Page name|Page titles]] and redirects can be searched with <code>intitle:{{var|query}}</code>, where {{var|query}} is the search string. The search results highlight occurrences in both the title and page content. Multiple <code>intitle:</code> filters may be used to search for words in titles regardless of order, or in different titles (i.e., redirects) for the same article. [[Help:Searching/Regex|Regular expression]]s can be used with <code>intitle:/{{var|regexp}}/</code> or the case insensitive <code>intitle:/{{var|regexp}}/i</code>. {{crossref|pw=y|(See more in the [[#insource:|insource]] section.)}}

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Query
! Description
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|intitle:airport}}}}
| All articles with the word {{samp|airport}} (or {{samp|Airport}} – this is case-insensitive) in their titles.
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|parking intitle:airport}}}}
| Articles with {{samp|parking}} in their text and {{samp|airport}} in their titles.
|-
|style=white-space: nowrap | {{kbd|{{search link|intitle:international intitle:airport}}}}
| Articles containing both {{samp|international}} and {{samp|airport}} in their titles (including, e.g., {{samp|Airports Council International}})
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|intitle:"international airport"}}}}
| Articles with the phrase {{samp|international airport}} in their titles.
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|airport -intitle:airport}}}}
| Articles with {{samp|airport}} in their text but not in their titles.
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|intitle:/airport/i -intitle:airport}}}}
| Articles with the string {{samp|airport}} (case-insensitive) but not the word {{samp|airport}} in their titles.
|}

==== <code>insource:</code> ====
{{shortcut|H:INSOURCE}}
{{anchor|insource}}

This can find template arguments, URLs, links, html, etc. It has two forms, one is an indexed search, and the other is [[Help:Searching/Regex|regex-based]].
{{clear}}
{|class="wikitable"
|-
! Query
! Description
|-
| {{kbd|insource:{{var|word}}}}<br />{{kbd|insource:"{{var|word1&nbsp;word2}}"}}
| Like word searches and exact-phrase searches, non-alphanumeric characters are ignored, and proximity and fuzziness are options.
|-
| {{kbd|insource:/{{var|regexp}}/}}<br />{{kbd|insource:/{{var|regexp}}/i}}
| These are [[Help:Searching/Regex|regular expressions]]. They use a lot of processing power, so we can only allow a few at a time on the search cluster, but they are very powerful. The version with the extra <code>i</code> runs the expression case-insensitive, and is even less efficient. Regex searches are likely to time out unless you further limit the search in some way, such as by including another parameter or a search term outside of the insource component of the search string. (For example, {{kbd|X* intitle:/X/}} to restrict the search to initial position.) {{crossref|pw=y|For more details, see [[mw:Help:CirrusSearch#Regular expression searches]].}}
|}

==== <code>incategory:</code> ====
{{anchor|incategory|Incategory}}<!-- Please leave anchors in place. Section redirects point to them. -->
{{shortcut|H:INCAT|H:INCATEGORY}}

Given as {{kbd|incategory:{{var|category}}}}, where [[Help:Category|{{var|category}}]] is the [[Help:Page name|page name]] of a category page, it lists pages assigned to the given category by methods including the addition of {{kbd|<nowiki>[[Category:</nowiki>{{var|page name}}<nowiki>]]</nowiki>}} to their wikitext. (Editors searching in namespaces other than mainspace will need to know [[WP:TCAT|the limitations]] these search results may contain.) If the category page name includes space characters; replace the spaces with underscores (e.g. {{kbd|incategory:Pages_of_interest}}), surround the page name with double quotes (e.g. {{kbd|incategory:"Pages of interest"}}) or both (but not on the [[Wikimedia Commons]] site). <code>incategory:</code> will also return pages in the adjacent subcategory {{crossref|pw=y|(see for example, {{nowrap|{{kbd|{{search link|category: incategory:History}}}}}})}}. Multiple <code>incategory:</code> filters may be applied. A more graphical alternative to a single filter is at [[Special:CategoryTree]]. Because categories are important structures for {{em|searching}} for related articles, any use of this prefix is particularly effective for searching. {{crossref|pw=y|(For more on using the categories themselves to find articles, see [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Categories]].)}}

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Query
! Description
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|Berlin incategory:German_chemists}}}}
| Starting with the articles listed at [[:Category: German chemists]], only the ones that have the word {{samp|Berlin}} in their text.
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|incategory:"Suspension bridges in the United States" incategory:"Bridges in New York City"}}}}
| Articles that are [[WP:CI|common to both categories]] – the suspension bridges in New York City. This will return nothing since all NYC bridges are categorized in subcategories, and <code>incategory:</code> doesn't search in subcategories. {{crossref|pw=y|(For the probably desired result, see usage of <code>deepcategory:</code> in the next section.)}}
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|incategory:"Suspension bridges in New York City" incategory:"Bridges in Brooklyn"}}}}
| Suspension bridges of Brooklyn.
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|"feral cat" -incategory:"Category:Cats in the United Kingdom"}}}}
| Articles that contain the phrase {{samp|feral cat}}, but not listed in [[:Category:Cats in the United Kingdom]].
|}

==== <code>deepcategory:</code> ====
{{anchor|deepcategory}}
{{shortcut|H:DEEPCAT}}

Also <code>deepcat:</code>, this allows you to search in a category and all its subcategories. The depth of the tree is currently limited to 5 levels, and the overall number of categories is limited to 1000.

Examples:

{| class="wikitable"
! Query
! Description
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|deepcat:"Musicals by topic"}}}}
| All musicals of any topic. (Finds articles that are in [[:Category:Musicals by topic]] or any of its subcategories.)
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|Berlin deepcat:German_chemists}}}}
| Starting with the articles listed at [[:Category: German chemists]], only the ones that have the word {{samp|Berlin}} in their text.
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|deepcat:"Suspension bridges in the United States" deepcat:"Bridges in New York City"}}}}
| Articles that are [[WP:CI|common to both categories]] – the suspension bridges in New York City. This will work since all NYC bridges are categorized in subcategories, and <code>incategory:</code> doesn't search in subcategories but <code>deepcat:</code> does.
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|deepcat:"Suspension bridges in New York City" deepcat:"Bridges in Brooklyn"}}}}
| Suspension bridges of Brooklyn.
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|"feral cat" -deepcat:"Category:Cats in the United Kingdom"}}}}
| Articles that contain the phrase {{samp|feral cat}}, but not listed in [[:Category:Cats in the United Kingdom]] or its subcategories.
|}

==== <code>prefix:</code> ====
{{shortcut|H:PREFIX}}
{{anchor|prefix}}

<code>prefix:{{var|page name}}</code> patterns {{em|only the beginning characters}} of a [[WP:Page name|page name]]. Because the "beginning" characters can, if you need, go on to include the characters all the way to the end of the page name, prefix must include spaces, since page names often include spaces. For this reason <code>prefix:</code> must only ever be given as the {{em|last part}} of a search box query, and next character after the colon cannot be a space. <code>prefix:</code> does not search for partial namespace names, but requires at least a full namespace name to start to find pages, but <code>prefix:</code> also recognizes an [[WP:Namespace#Aliases|alias]] of a namespace, and it recognizes redirects (or shortcut). Prefix is the most widely used and powerful filter as it can mimic the namespace filter, and because <code>intitle:</code> cannot easily target a single page, even together with other filters. [[Special:PrefixIndex]] is a MediaWiki, graphical, version, using only <code>prefix:</code> to find pages.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Query
! Description
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|Salvage wreck prefix:USS}}}}
| Articles containing the words {{samp|salvage}} and {{samp|wreck}} whose title starts with the characters {{samp|USS}}.
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|wave particle prefix:Talk:Speed of light}}}}
| The [[Speed of light]] article's talk pages containing the terms {{samp|particle}} and {{samp|wave}}, including the current and the [[WP:Archive|archived]] talk [[WP:Subpage|subpages]].
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|wave particle prefix:Talk:Speed of light/}}}}
| Same search, but only in the archived talk subpages.
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|"portal namespace"  readers prefix:Wikipedia talk:}}}}
| Is equivalent to {{samp|Wikipedia talk:"portal namespace" readers}}.
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|language prefix:Portal:Chi}}}}
| Portal namespace page names that begin with {{samp|Portal:Chi}} and have the word {{samp|language}} in the page.
|}

==== <code>linksto:</code> ====
{{shortcut|H:LINKSTO}}
{{anchor|linksto}}

<code>linksto:{{var|page name}}</code> searches in pages that link to the given page. Can be used negatively by prefixing a hyphen, which will return pages that {{em|do not}} link to the given page. Unlike with some other keywords, the page name is case-sensitive.

{{clear}}
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Query
! Description
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|linksto:Airport}}}}
| All articles containing internal link to [[Airport]].
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|parking linksto:Airport}}}}
| Articles with {{samp|parking}} in their text linking to [[Airport]]
|-
| {{kbd|{{search link|-linksto:"Albert Einstein" "Albert Einstein"}}}}
| Articles containing {{samp|Albert Einstein}} NOT linking to [[Albert Einstein]]
|}

==== <code>subpageof:</code> ====
{{shortcut|H:SUBOF}}
{{anchor|subpageof}}

This limits searches to [[Wikipedia:Subpages|subpages]] of the specified page. You can also negate the subpages from a search by preceding subpageof: with a hyphen. Note that articles on Wikipedia don't have subpages, but the pages of the other namespaces do. Therefore, use the [[#namespace name:|namespace parameter]] also, or select the namespace at [[Special:Search]]. Here are some examples:

For <code>User:</code> searches, click "Search for pages containing" or use [[Special:Search]]. This is not needed for other namespaces. To look at all the subpages of a user, try this:

{{kbd|User:subpageof:AzaToth}}

That will display all the subpages of [[User:AzaToth]]. They can also be seen at [[Special:PrefixIndex/User:AzaToth/]] but [[Special:PrefixIndex]] cannot be combined with a search.

To make sure Articles for deletion pages do not show up in the results of a Wikipedia namespace search, try this:

{{kbd|Wikipedia:"Hi there" -subpageof:"Articles for deletion"}}

That will show pages from the Wikipedia namespace with "Hi there" in them, and the list of results will not be cluttered with any [[WP:Articles for deletion]] debates (there are hundreds of thousands). Notice the use of the hyphen (that makes it mean "not subpages of").

==== <code>hastemplate:</code> ====
{{anchor|hastemplate}}
{{shortcut|H:HASTEMP}}

This finds pages that use the specified [[Wikipedia:template|template]]. Input the canonical page name to find all usage of the template, but use any of its redirect page names finds just that naming. Namespace aliases are accepted, capitalization is entirely ignored, and redirects are found, all in one name-search.

This is more thorough than <code>insource:</code>, in that it will find meta-templates (templates called by another template). Meta-templates don't show up in the local page's wikitext.

Example of <code>hastemplate:</code> usage:

{{kbd|hastemplate:"Article for deletion/dated"}}

This lets you find all the articles being considered for deletion.

{{kbd|intitle:"Outline of " -hastemplate:"Outline footer"}}

This lets you find [[Wikipedia:Outlines|Wikipedia outlines]] that lack the outline footer template. (Notice the use of the hyphen to indicate "NOT").

==== <code>articletopic:</code> ====
{{anchor|articletopic}}

This keyword allows filtering search results by topic. {{crossref|pw=y|(For possible topics see [[mw:Help:CirrusSearch/articletopic]].)}} E.g. {{kbd|articletopic:books}} will filter the search results to articles about books. {{kbd|articletopic:books{{!}}films}} will filter to articles about books or films. {{kbd|articletopic:books articletopic:films}} will filter to articles which are about both books and films.

Only mainspace articles belong to topics. Unlike most other filters, <code>articletopic:</code> also does page weighting: articles which are a stronger match for a topic will be higher in the search results (while articles which aren't about that subject at all will be removed from the result set completely).

Topic models are derived via machine learning from [[mw:ORES#Topic routing|ORES]]. Any given article receives a score on dozens of different topics, and therefore may appear under different keywords. For instance, the article on Albert Einstein may appear as a "physics" article and a "biography" article. Topic-related search data is updated weekly, so recently created articles might not show up in topic-based search queries.

==== <code>inproject:</code> ====
{{anchor|inproject}}

Allows filtering of search results to pages in given [[Wikipedia:WikiProject|WikiProjects]]. Examples:

* {{kbd|inproject:Cricket}} filters to pages in [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Cricket|WikiProject Cricket]]
* {{kbd|inproject:Cricket{{!}}Football}} filters to pages in either WikiProject Cricket or WikiProject Football.
* {{kbd|inproject:Football inproject:Cricket}} filters to only pages which are in both WikiProjects
* {{kbd|inproject:"Africa/Seychelles work group"}} filters to pages in the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/Seychelles work group|Seychelles work group]] of WikiProject Africa.

A list of [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=projects&pjsubprojects=true all possible projects and subprojects] can be obtained via the API.

''Note this filter only works on wikis with [[mw:Extension:PageAssessments|Extension:PageAssessments]] installed (which includes English Wikipedia)''
