+Wanted Pages overview: 27,000 + red links are in the Wiki. Using Excel, these are being analyzed for:
+#Source of the red links
+#Does the info already exist in the Wiki?
+#Set priorities
+#Projects/assignments. In some cases, the link may need to be rename or removed from several pages
+#Increase awareness.
+##For localities, wanted pages will be posted on their "Help Wanted" pages, such as [[FamilySearch Wiki:Help wanted on the Arkansas pages|Arkansas]]
+##Can also notify moderators, adopters, contributors
+Your ideas:
+Some examples:
+*[[Search the courts of the surrounding parishes]] (425 links) and [[Diocese of Not Applicable]] (427 links) These came from the [[Ramshope, Northumberland Infobox]] posted on many parishes.
+**The pages are needed, per Steve Cotrell
+**Options:
+***Simply create the page and explain more deeply
+***Train several people to unlink the explanation and create a "Learn More" link (which would be clearer in my mind, but definitely requires a lot of Wiki work.)
+*Several are town pages wanted in the US:
+**A project can be to identify if this is a county seat and if not, remove the link (but not the town name)
+**There are a LOT of "wanted" town pages in the 27000 that have been downloaded. Excel will help us identify them
