Task List
Instructions
1. Open the Task List, and navigate to a tab you'd like to work on.
- If the country tab has no content in it, right click on the tab name, and change the color of the tab to Red. Then move on to the next country.
Create Online Learning Page
2. In the search box on the FS Wiki, search for "COUNTRYNAME Online Learning" (replacing COUNTRYNAME with the name of your country). The search results should yield a red link you can click on to create the new page.
- Examples of correct page titles are as follows:
- Afghanistan Online Learning
- Seychelles Online Learning
- El Salvador Online Learning
3. Copy the following code, and paste it into the new page you're creating:
{{breadcrumb
| link1=[[COUNTRY Genealogy|COUNTRY]]
| link2=
| link3=
| link4=
| link5=[[COUNTRY Online Learning|Online Learning]]
}}{{COUNTRY-sidebar}}

Create Table
5. Back on the Task List in your country tab, select cell A1, hold the Shift key, and then select the bottom-most cell in column H (you should be selecting all the content in the whole table, excluding blank rows).
- Note: there are some classes listed more than once in a table. That's ok. Don't delete any duplicates you see.
6. Copy all the content you have selected.
7. Open Excel2Wiki, and paste all the table content into the empty field.
8. Check the "sortable" box, and then click "Convert".
9. Copy all the Wiki code generated below, starting with "{| class="wikitable sortable"", and ending with the table closing code "|}".
10. Paste the code you copied in step 9 under the "Videos" heading on the FS Wiki page you created.
- The table code should be pasted under the pre-existing content under the "Videos" heading, and above the "More Resources" heading.
11. Click "Show preview" on the Wiki page and make sure no code in the table looks broken, and no "COUNTRY" instances were missed on the page (including in the Categories).
12. If everything looks good, put the following statement in the Summary:
