From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My name is Milo Grika (born, 29 November, 1967)

I, FireFox, hereby award you The RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar for all your reverts and efforts in chasing after vandals!
The GO-PCHS-NJROTC Abuse Report and Antivandal Barnstar For reverting vandalism to Port Charlotte High School!

I started editing the wikipedia 18 January, 2005 with off-color humor though I am not credited as I didn't have an account at that time. Looking at my vanity list, you will see that I am drawn to articles concerning natural sciences and linguistics.

Number of times my user page has been vandalized: >10

Wikipedia has its own search engine, with its search box on every page. The search box will go to a given page name, but there are three ways to go to the search results page instead.

  1. If you activate the magnifying-glass icon (or the Search button) from an empty search box, you'll go to an empty search results page.
  2. If you start any query with the tilde character, it always generates search results, ~page name.
  3. Choose "Search for pages containing" from the page names that drop-down as you type (if you have JavaScript enabled). To access the suggestions that drop down as you type, click the mouse on them, or use , or Tab ↹, to access them.

At an empty Search display, there are filtering options for:

  • Content pages – Search in (Article)
  • Multimedia – Search for files
  • Everything – Search of all content (including talk pages)
  • Advanced – Search in custom namespaces
