• If you are trying to use Boolean operators, they must be ALL CAPS: %22napoleon %((25 i) OR (25 _)) %_ emperor of the french %((((2 1769) OR (12 1769))) OR (((((27 1769) OR (17 1769))) OR (27 1799))))-1821%22.
• The words AND, OR and NOT may confuse the search; try adding quotes: "%22napoleon %((25 i) or (25 _)) %_ emperor of the french %((((2 1769) OR (12 1769))) or (((((27 1769) or (17 1769))) or (27 1799))))-1821%22".
• Adding a wildcard symbol may retrieve word variants: %22napoleon %((25 i) or (25 _)) %_ emperor of the french %((((2 1769) OR (12 1769))) or (((((27 1769) or (17 1769))) or (27 1799))))-1821%22*.
