So, I'm not so sure I like GitHub's wiki so much, after all#

Looks like there's no way to execute a search, so you're reduced to stumbling around from linked page to linked page, trying to find what you're interested in.

:(

So, what to do? I could keep on building org-mode files, and that might actually be the best bet.

Or I could find a way to make a zillion little Jekyll files here in another folder, and figure out how to refer to them.

If I take the latter approach, is searchability any better? Apparently so. Check this out: https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&es_th=1&ie=UTF-8#q=stylesheet%20site%3Ajohnl4.github.io&es_th=1

Or maybe I should just continue to use Evernote, but better.

The Solution#

• Make wikis editable only by collaborators:

!

(After you click on the settings "gear" for your wiki.)

• Use Google's site: operator:

site:github.com/NRules/NRules/wiki assembly

Note that, for some reason, this search works, but the following one doesn't:

site:github.com/JohnL4/johnl4.github.io/wiki markup

So, there are a couple of possibilities to fix the "search" issue:

• Submit your url to Google, via https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/submit-url.
• Register your Very Own Website (GitHub jekyll blog) and register it via https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/home?hl=en (then click on "Add a Property").
• Use a browser plugin. Then, at least you can search your own wiki:
  • https://github.com/linyows/github-wiki-search
  • https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/github-wiki-search/gdifdhnjmjaidbajhapmbcbnoocoeooc?hl=en (This one slightly bollixes things up.)
