:Hi Don, this is certainly a proposal that we can discuss and change as we understand all the issues in play. I like the ''Parishes in the Hundred and District of..'' navbox you have created. I notice that you have coded this directly in the parish page. Did you consider creating them as templates? The purpose of navboxes is to group together related links. So even though the topic links will be in the body of the article, they are also useful if repeated in a navbox at the end of the main article. --[[User:Cottrells|Steve]] {{toolbar|[[User talk:Cottrells|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Cottrells|contribs]]}} 18:29, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

Hi Steve
I don't think I have progressed far enough into the process to establish template navboxes for the districts. There would be twenty different navboxes as there are 20 registration districts in Suffolk.  [[Hoxne Hundred, Suffolk]] is the only page developed, 19 more pages need be developed. [[Hundreds_and_Boroughs_of_Suffolk]].  The relationship of the hundreds, districts, and deanery's need to be sorted out and how to integrate them and name the pages. I do think that the links to the parishes in district would be more suite in the Civil Registration section.
I have altered the {{template:Suffolk]] and removed all the parishes.  Some more thought will have to go into how that template will evolve.  [[User:Donjgen|Donjgen]] 15:07, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
