*'''News and Events'''
**Other channels, blogs, Facebook better as sources
**Council decided that the wiki should direct users to these better sources rather than add "news" content directly in the wiki
**Next steps - recommend change to wiki policy and advise others via the [[FamilySearch Wiki:Contributors Meeting]]
**Danielle could talk to Marilyn Markham about taking out the News & Events sections on the locality pages, by missionaries. They would have to know how to manage the templates.
**Steve Cottrells could use the "replace text" function to expedite this process, especially for blank boxes.
**Per David Dilts, this could be complicated.
**Charles can check with foreign wiki managers to see if this would be a problem for them.
**Danielle will talk to GSWAC and report back on their position on this change.
