== Progress reports ==

**The table was simplified for adding/editing, templates for beg and end of the table.  

**Ready to move to the counties? Liz and group: Suggestions made on the experimental county page  

*[[FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject Utah Experimental County#Churches_and_Religious_Groups|LDS Church records]] table: Wilma has put it on 2 counties: Beaver, [[Box Elder County, Utah#Churches_and_Religious_Groups|Box Elder]]  

**Show the situation, get counsel from group : some ideas given, Wilma will work more with this.

*Task to adapt the "pattern" for each LDS community: Wilma created templates for generic sections of the [[FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject Utah Tasks Church LDS Phase 1|pattern page]]. Marty, Joy, and Lois have not yet been trained.  

*Task to add timelines from Jensen's mostly prepared: Marty and Bo have not yet been trained.  

*Is Tracing LDS Ancestors from area of counties OK? Approved  

*Genealogical Surveys also mentioned in last meeting: Do only for Ogden, Davis, and others with large compilations.  

*Patriarchal Blessings: perhaps part of birth page? Has names of parents, etc. and some can only find those from this index. Hancock County, IL as well. He will link to Tracing LDs  

**Suggestion from last meeting not yet implemented: Newberry atlas of historical county boundaries.  

*SEO (Search Engine Optimizer) [[Beaver County, Utah]] : Today, Wilma will create the template, which can be adjusted later.

*Libraries: such minor progress, not worth mentioning in meeting.  

 

*[[FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject Utah Experimental County#Naturalization_and_Citizenship|FHLC links]]. To do: once Libraries section is ready, show the FHLC links to the person who has not liked them. Wilma:  

*Get documentation of [[Utah Vital Records#Birth_Records|Delayed Birth Registration]] - dates started, etc. (Says 1941 on state page, but no citation.) - Pat Done!  

**Pat needs a stillbirth from 1942-1960  

*Do the county newspaper pages - Wilma  

*Value and frequency of FHLC links - topic of a near future meeting.
