Tip of the day...
Title searches

You can focus your searches by using the intitle: parameter. Here's how:

(1) In the Wikipedia search box, type the word intitle followed by a colon, then the word or phrase you are looking for. When you click on "Search," then, you'll be presented with a list of articles that have your search term in their titles.
(2) You can also search for one word or phrase in the title and for others in the text of the articles. For example:
Query Result
intitle:airport All articles with airport in their titles
intitle:international airport Articles containing the two words international and airport anywhere in their titles—which will give you a list that includes, for example, the article World's busiest airports by international passenger traffic
parking intitle:airport Articles with parking in the text, and airport in their titles.
intitle:"international airport"   Articles containing the exact expression international airport in their titles.

An even more powerful tool for searching titles is Grep. It lets you search titles using regular expressions, and in the results it lists the titles only.

John Mooney's Page

[edit]

Hi,

I read an article in the Economist recently that had a bit in about John Mooney, and when I looked at his page on Wikipedia I noticed that you had made a lot of edits to the page, so as someone who has an interest in him, I thought I;d ask your advice before updating his page. Basically, given his statements on his past troubles with mental health, I was wondering whether it was worth mentioning. My perspective is that I think that to have been so open is a very courageous thing, and I think he deserves credit for doing so, especially in the light of cricket's long-standing problems in that area. But I'm concerned that in mentioning it in some depth on his page, might seem like oblique criticism, which is the opposite of what I intend.

I'm happy to do the work, but I was just looking for someone else's perspective. Have you any thoughts?
