Searching
For several reasons, including lack of resource and inherent ambiguity, not all names in the NZETC are marked-up. This means that finding all references to a topic often involves searching. Search for Tahiti as: "Tahiti", "Otaheite". Additional references are often found by searching for just the main name of the topic (the surname in the case of people).
