You can't customize the in-wiki Search feature.

You can use category pages as content pages. If you have a pre-defined list of terms which people can type, you can use redirects to link those terms to category pages.

(You can experiment with this on https://sandbox.fandom.com/)

Try making a page "Category:Warhammer 40k" and a redirect page called "Warhammer 40k" with source code


 * 1) redirect Category:Warhammer 40k

Note that redirects will not always appear in the in-wiki search results, nor are Category pages very visible when searching in web browsers (this is what content pages are for). If you are an admin, you may find that these pages get less views, despite the category names being more commonly searched for.

Categories will, however, help improve the SEO (as mentioned in the article linked above). A search engine will make the connection between the category and the content inside the category. These connections make for better search results (more related to the topic you are searching for).
