Wiki search is not as sophisticated as Google, for sure. The nice thing is that Google indexes wiki pages so you can use Google to search the wiki - "prophet stt.wiki" (without the quotes).
Bums me out when people complain about the wiki, into which a lot of people have poured a lot of time, effort and money to help the STT community.

Thanks for your acknowledgement. Being a contributor there myself, I still think I can complain about some (minor) technical issues which doesn't have anything to do with our contributions. I use wiki as information source all the time anyway.

It’s annoyingly that some searches don’t fill in suggested results until you have finished typing the entire name of a crew, item, or mission but that’s a technical issue. As a resource, the Wiki is frankly indispensable and everyone who has contributed, even if it’s just some information for a couple of pages, deserves a thank-you note for their work.
I'll readily co-sign a statement that the Wiki search feature is often, to be charitable, unhelpful. When I searched just now for "prophet", all that turned up for me was a list of "They Came From the Holodeck" and its replays. Even Sarah Sisko, who has the trait Prophet, didn't appear.
That said, a search for "The Prophet" rather than just "prophet" would have returned the proper crew card. Also, "The Prophet's Badge" would have pulled up the chart for that item, completed by our intrepid contributors, including the "Item Used By" box wherein The Prophet can be found and linked.
And this concludes today's lesson on Wiki searches. Have a good weekend and I'll see you back in class on Monday.

I actually first used both of these searches - "The Prophet's Badge" and "The Prophet", and it found absolutely nothing. After that I checked Sarah Sisko, knowing that she have prophet trait, for her equipment as I completely forgot about Mirror Sarek and that's why I made this post here.

Same here.
See my post in the Ready Room about how well it helped last week. All those 4* were from following the "Choice __ may lead to...." notes.

Me, too. My thanks to those who keep it up.
