I read in the [[FamilySearch Wiki:Community Meeting Agenda 1 December 2009#Chat_messages_during_the_meeting|community meeting chat on December 1]], that [[User:Laraleepn|Laralee]] wondered why adding the {{tl|helpme}} template, which automatically adds the user page to this category, does not show up on the watchlist for this category.

I've noticed that helpme tag is not being used properly.  I put up a help me and have read others and see that whoever responds automatically change the helpme to help-me-help without follwing through to be sure there is a solution.  If you respond to a help me and offer no help or solution do not change the tag  to help-me-helped.  There is more than one helper that may want to weigh in on a matter.    [[User:Donjgen|Donjgen]] 19:37, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
