* '''Time is running out for feedback.''' The [http://learning.fsbeta.familysearch.org/ FamilySearch Beta] site has the current page designs for the wiki content. Take a minute to review the [http://wiki.fsbeta.familysearch.org/en/West_Virginia West Virginia] page and the [http://wiki.fsbeta.familysearch.org/en/Czech_Republic Czech Republic] pages for examples. Two items to make note of is the small topics content box is automatically being pulled over to the right when the page is saved. When you are editing the page, the small column appears at the bottom of the edit box. Is this a problem? We need your feedback on this ASAP. Another thing to watch for on all pages is that the content is not going beyond the visual border of the page. I don't have an example page to look at because I think they were all fixed. Links to the Beta site and the Forum thread can be found at the top of the Forum screen:

'''Item 1:'''
 
*[http://wiki.fsbeta.familysearch.org/en/West_Virginia West Virginia] page  
*[http://wiki.fsbeta.familysearch.org/en/Czech_Republic Czech Republic] page
*Two items to make note of when viewing these pages:
*The small topics column box is automatically being pulled over to the right.
*When you are editing the page, the small column appears at the bottom of the edit box.  
*Is this a problem?  
 
'''Item 2:'''
 
*With the search box moved to the top-right corner of every page, the page content was not recognizing the new column on the right. This issue was fixed, so we don't have an example page to look at. If you see any Wiki page that pushes some of the content over to the new column on the right, please add give feedback on the Forum.
 
'''Item 3:'''
 
*Content pages that include a table of contents can be edited if desired to move the table of content to the right column under the search box. We are working on creating an example and will post it here when it's done.
 
'''Item 4:'''
 
*All the navigational links that are currently on the right side of the screen are now located at the top in a drop-down list. How do you feel about moving each of these items up to the top, hidden from view until the user clicks on "More"?
*Home - with the Wiki incorporated into FamilySearch, the home is no longer "home," Feedback?
*Help - how do you feel about having more than one "Help" on all the screens?
