If you want to find a category to add to a page, but search isn't working

 * 1) Under "Tools" on the menu at the side of the page, select "Special Pages".
 * 2) From the list you get, select "Categories" in the section Lists of Pages.
 * 3) On that page, use the Contents bar at the top of the page to narrow down the list to the first two letters of what you think the category might be called. (For example, if you think the category might be named "Drawn to this Index", select "Dr" - you'll see in the list that it's called "Drawn to This Index".)
