<br> 6. Determine the correct Google map link but using instructions found on this [[FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject FHC Maps#Instructions|project page]].
:b. Once you enter the address, a new URL will appear in the URL field. Copy this URL.
:c. Go back to your FHC page and in the address section, beside the asterisk under "Location Map" address, you will hyperlink them to the link you just created on the Google maps page. To create the link in wikitext, add a left square bracket left of the asterisk and then paste the url link left of the bracket.  After the url link, put a space and type in "Google Map" and a right square bracket.  This is an example of the wikitext for a Google Map hyperlink: <nowiki> *[https://www.google.com/maps/place/155+US-95+ALT,+Fernley,+NV+89408/@39.606638,-119.2504143,18z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x8098dd5f562029f1:0xcefe70b1f8bdbdab?hl=en Google Map]</nowiki>
 
<br>8. Once you have saved the page, click on your location map link and be sure it does take the user to a google map of the location of the FHC you were working on. If it does, you are ready to move on to the next FHC. If it does not, you will need to go back and re-do the link.
