[Wiki] Search not working on user pages

[Dave Neary]

Hi Adrian,

I'm playing catch-up this week, but your email is one I plan to reply 
to. The short answer is, please create the page in the Main namespace, 
and I will link to it from the User documentation page. You can add it 
to Category:Documentation to begin, and perhaps it's appropriate to link 
to it from other pages besides Documentation (which is kind of intended 
to be a "most frequently used" page).

Thanks!
Dave.
