An example of a search would be to click "[[WP:Wikipedia_Signpost/Archives]]" and enter the word "parser" in the search-all field. The resulting search will show a list of the matching Signpost pages, each with a partial phrase containing the search term (in this case, the word "parser") as it appears within the text of each matching page. ▲[[Category:Wikipedia essays\|~~Techical~~Technical reports]] [[Category:Wikipedia archives]]
