Template:Signpost/Search/doc

Usage
Makes searching through Signpost articles much easier, by giving you a search box that automatically adds terrifying regexes to a query.

This template is actually several templates (articles, talk, and all) which you can select between by passing a parameter. Like so:







You can also specify  to get all three:

If you don't supply a parameter, or supply something not recognized, it will just return the "articles" search box.



Subtemplates
Ideally, you don't call these directly, you do it from Signpost/Search.

Template:Signpost/Search/talk
Searches through all pages with "Talk:" and "Signpost" in them.

Template:Signpost/Search/articles
The regex is this:

Template:Signpost/Search/all
Automatically filters to only pages with "Signpost" in their title.

Template:Signpost/Search/mostrecent
This creates a link to a search formatted to find the most recent instance of the column name you give it. For example:

gives:
 * [ Click here!!!]

Note that you don't need to do any special formatting (like "Arbitration_report") for the parameter -- it makes a correct URL automatically.
