Forum:Searching for tags

Hello all. I am wondering if there is a way to search for tags. I know that there is the Tag Report Special Page, but it doesn't display the one for which I'm searching. It is the and tags. The reason that I'm trying to do this is because we have a few templates that add these tags and takes the guess work out of footnotes. Just wondering. Thanks! 11:15, January 31, 2012 (UTC)


 * You are following a pre thought through plan, which is not very clear to me. Can you please expand a little on what you like to achieve?


 * You want to search through the footnotes, or you want to add footnotes on many pages, or is it that you want to replace footnotes or find the templates adding the footnotes?

Sorry if I wasn't clear. When my wiki first started, we used the tags to surround our footnotes and the tag to display them at the bottom of the article. Since then, we had a user create some templates that make footnoting a lot easier. What I'm asking is for some way to search the code for the old tags so that I can update those articles with the templates. Let me know if you need anymore info! 20:11, January 31, 2012 (UTC)


 * Most commonly people are using bots to do such work. However you also can use AutoWikiBrowser if you aren't very familiair with coding or if it's only a small task. I am interested to know the template you used. Can you provide a link?
