Description FT2 2010-09-23 20:08:00 UTC
A search option "incategory:" would be immensely helpful. Often you can narrow down what you are looking for to a specific set of pages - a page on some topic, or some community page type.

Immensely useful. Examples given on request if not obvious.
Comment 1 MZMcBride 2010-09-23 20:18:03 UTC
incategory: already exists. It has several limitations, though. Most of these limitations are likely documented in other bugs, making this one likely a dupe.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Help:Searching&oldid=382451245:
incategory: - using the incategory: parameter returns pages in a given category (as long as the pages are directly categorized, and not transcluded through templates). This feature doesn't return pages in subcategories. Note that, for category names that contain a space, either the space must be replaced with an underscore or the category name must be surrounded by double quotes for the search to be effective.
Comment 2 Roan Kattouw 2010-09-24 13:53:31 UTC
Closing as WORKSFORME as the requested feature is already there. Feel free to REOPEN if you really meant something else.
