 === Wildcard Query
+Returns documents that contain terms matching a wildcard pattern.
 
-Matches documents that have fields matching a wildcard expression (*not
-analyzed*). Supported wildcards are `*`, which matches any character
-sequence (including the empty one), and `?`, which matches any single
-character. Note that this query can be slow, as it needs to iterate over many
-terms. In order to prevent extremely slow wildcard queries, a wildcard
-term should not start with one of the wildcards `*` or `?`. The wildcard
-query maps to Lucene `WildcardQuery`.
+A wildcard operator is a placeholder that matches one or more characters. For
+example, the `*` wildcard operator matches zero or more characters. You can
+combine wildcard operators with other characters to create a wildcard pattern.

+==== Example request
 
-A boost can also be associated with the query:
+The following search returns documents where the `user` field contains a term
+that begins with `ki` and ends with `y`. These matching terms can include `kiy`,
+`kity`, or `kimchy`.

+==== Parameters for `<field>`
+`value`::
+Wildcard pattern for terms you wish to find in the provided `<field>`.
++
+--
+This parameter supports two wildcard operators:
+
+* `?`, which matches any single character
+* `*`, which can match zero or more characters, including an empty one
+
+WARNING: Avoid beginning patterns with `*` or `?`. This can increase
+the iterations needed to find matching terms and slow search performance.
+-- 
+
+`boost`::
+Floating point number used to decrease or increase the
+<<query-filter-context, relevance scores>> of a query. Default is `1.0`.
+Optional.
++
+You can use the `boost` parameter to adjust relevance scores for searches
+containing two or more queries.
++
+Boost values are relative to the default value of `1.0`. A boost value between
+`0` and `1.0` decreases the relevance score. A value greater than `1.0`
+increases the relevance score.

+`rewrite` (Expert)::
+Method used to rewrite the query. For valid values and more information, see the
+<<query-dsl-multi-term-rewrite, `rewrite` parameter>>. Optional.
