FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject Washington Tasks Cut and Paste
Task Description
This is an easy task, although there are 12 items to copy one at a time from this page to the specified topics on a county page.
Note: in some counties, a template may have already been posted in the correct place. Simply bypass that topic and go to the next cut-and-paste. Several of the templates below are new, so only Okanogan county will have them all.
| Tip: It is easiest to do these cut-and-pastes by having this task page and the county page open at the same time. Right-click Wiki Home (under Research Articles at the right), select "Open link in a new tab." Then search for Washington and click to the county. |
Steps
Step 1) Sign up for a county
Step 2) (NOT in edit mode) copy one template from this page. (The templates have two squiggly brackets, i.e. {{template name}} on each side.)
Step 3) On the county page, go to the specified topic and click the little edit square. Use Wikitext to paste the template to the county page;
Step 4) Type the topic and the word "Intro" to edit Summary (Example: "Cemeteries intro");
Step 5) Save page
Step 6) Repeat Steps 2-5 for the next task listed until all 12 are completed.
Step 7) On the assignment chart, 1) add 4 tildes ~~~~ in the Completed column next to the county you just finished; 2) Summary "Finished [county name]"; and 3) Save page.
