Tips on using the WildSounds Search Engine

To find information about a topic, simply type in a few keywords. The more detailed your query, the more relevant your results.

Our search engine also comes with some advanced capabilities to help you find exactly what you're looking for. These capabilities are best shown with a few examples:

Translated: require FRED, require flintstone: Finds "FRED Flintstone" and "Fred from the TV series the Flintstones".
Does not find the lowercase "fred flintstone", nor the abbreviated "FRED Flinty".
Translated: forbid FRED, require flintstone: Finds "fredrick flintstone", "Fred flintstone", and lowercase "fred flintstone".
Does not find "FRED" nor "FRED flintstone".
Translated: prefer FRED, require flintstone: Finds "fredrick flintstone", "Fred flintstone", and "FRED flintstone".
Documents with both terms appear higher in the list.
Translated: require the phrase "FRED flintstone": Finds "FRED flintstone".
Does not find "flinstone FRED" nor "Fred from the TV series the Flintstones".
Translated: require fred (case insensitive), require words starting with "flint": Finds "Fred flint", "Fred flintstone", "Fred flinthead".
The asterisk is a wildcard representing any four or fewer characters.
Translated: require Wilma (case sensitive), require pictures, forbid fred, prefer images: First lists "pictures and images of Wilma", then "Wilma pictures".
Does not list lowercase "venus picture", nor forbidden "picture of fred with Wilma".
Translated: ignores common words like where, is, and the - requires words containing "frog": Finds "frog", "frogleg", and "bullfrog".
To suppress the ignore feature, use quotes, as in "Where is the *frog*?".

Note on case sensitivity - only words or phrases containing an upper case character will be treated as case sensitive. A search on "usa" will match "Usa", "USA", and "usA", while the term "USA" matches only its uppercase version.

The asterisk is a powerful search tool, but has some limitations. It cannot span words - that is, the query "powerfu*earch" would not match the first sentence of this paragraph - and it can represent at most four letters or numbers. To avoid overly broad searches, the asterisk can be used only in words or phrases which have at least three alpha-numeric characters. A search for "th*" would be ignored.
