{% data reusables.search.syntax_tips %}

Search within a user's or organization's repositories

To find wiki pages from all repositories owned by a certain user or organization, use the user or org qualifier. To find wiki pages from a specific repository, use the repo qualifier.

Qualifier	Example
user:USERNAME	user:defunkt matches wiki pages from repositories owned by @defunkt.
org:ORGNAME	org:github matches wikis in repositories owned by the GitHub organization.
repo:USERNAME/REPOSITORY	repo:defunkt/gibberish matches wiki pages from @defunkt's "gibberish" repository.

Search within a wiki page title or body text

The in qualifier limits the search to the wiki page title or body text. Without the qualifier, both the title and body text are searched.

Qualifier	Example
in:title	usage in:title matches wiki page titles with the word "usage."
in:body	installation in:body matches wiki pages with the word "installation" in their main body text.

Search by last updated date

The updated qualifier matches wiki pages that were last updated within the specified date range.

{% data reusables.search.date_gt_lt %}

Qualifier	Example
updated:YYYY-MM-DD	usage updated:>2016-01-01 matches wiki pages with the word "usage" that were last updated after 2016-01-01.
