Is it possible to search for a category using wild cards. This does not work PATH:"/cm:generalclassifiable//cm:AUSTRALIA*"‍‍‍Also is it possible to do a case insensitive category search.This returns one result PATH:"/cm:generalclassifiable//cm:AFRICA"‍‍‍but this returns no results PATH:"/cm:ge

Hi

As things are done as PATH then only exact case sensitive name matches are supported.

If you are trying to find a category (not things in catgeories) then you can use

+TYPE\:"cm:category" +cm\:name:australia*

This should do the case conversion and wildcarding you can not do via PATH. There will be no path constraint on the result.
