Instructions

Brazil Category Update

1.Sign your name next to a link on the Task List and open the link

2. Click "Editar código-fonte" and scroll all the way to the bottom of the editing area.

3. Check that the page has a Category. If it doesn't, skip to Step 6

4. If it does have a category, make sure it matches the cell contents listed in Column D, "Correct Category," on the task list.

• Sometimes it will say "Category" or "Categoria." Both present to the Portuguese speaking patrons the same way. Do not change it unless the actual category is incorrect.
  
• If the category doesn't match Column D, "Correct Category," copy the contents of the cell and replace the incorrect one on the page. When saving use the reason in Step 11.
  
  

5. If it does have a correct category, click the check box on the task list in Column F, "Category Already Correct."

• Click "Cancelar" on the wiki page as you will not be making any edits. Skip to Step 9.
  
  

6. If there is no category, copy the cell contents in Column D that correlate with the wiki page you signed up for and paste it at the very bottom of the wiki page after all text and code on its own line.

7. Click "Antever resultado" and check that everything looks good.

• You will need to scroll past the editing box to see if the category changed
  
  

8. Click the check box in Column E, "Category Added/Fixed?" if you fixed it.

• Leave the box unchecked if you didn't do anything to it.
  
  

9. Double check the page for an updated breadcrumb and page title.

• The breadcrumb should have the new green arrows
  
  

• The updated page title should have "Brasil - Genealogia" at the end of it.

• For example: "Acrelândia, Acre, Brasil - Genealogia" not "Acrelândia, Acre - Genealogia"
  
  

10. Click the check boxes "Breadcrumb Updated?" in Column G and "Title Updated?" in Column H if the page met the standards in Step 9.

• Do not fix any breadcrumbs or titles. Just leave the boxes unchecked if they need to be updated.
