-I noticed at [[Pilot.familysearch.org]] (boy do I really dislike the name of that page), it accesses Record Search. Actually, too many people are getting "pilot" mixed up in the name . . . the product is "Record Search" and it happens to be a "pilot" site. We do not call this "beta wiki" because it is a "beta" site. Anyway, off of the soap box. A thought that I had was wondering what you thought about having the template go to the main page of Record Search if no collection ID is passed in? Side question: how do we get all references to use the template? [[User:Thomas_Lerman|Thomas Lerman]] 14:30, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

 :I have moved the article mentioned to [[FamilySearch Record Search]]. I agree that some people use ''pilot'' as part of the name of the site whereas the term is referring to it's status. In what circumstances do you think this template be used without an collection ID? With regards getting all references to use the template, I'm afraid unless someone [[FamilySearch Wiki:Bots provisions|authorises a bot]] to do it, it would need to be done by hand. --[[User:Cottrells|Steve]] 19:33, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
-::I have not seen what other situations exists, but the above mentioned article has a link to the main Record Search page. I suppose if this is the only reference, it is obviously easy enough to change this page. If many others reference the link, it would be nice if they used this template, but with no collection ID. I was afraid of that . . . the bot. Any suggestions on how we can move toward the overall change? [[User:Thomas_Lerman|Thomas Lerman]] 20:48, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

 :::I have changed the template so that if no parameter is given only the URL will be displayed. --[[User:Cottrells|Steve]] 21:20, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
-::::Hmmm, I guess that is what I suggested. Do we want it to display the URL or [http://pilot.familysearch.org Record Search]? I believe we decided on the standard. Wait, that has not been completely decided yet. [[User:Thomas_Lerman|Thomas Lerman]] 03:35, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

-May I suggest that no parameters will display text instead of the link, for example {{tl|RecordSearch}} would display [https://beta.familysearch.org/s/collection/list Historical Records Collections]? I believe just displaying the URL may be kind of against the Manual of Style. [[User:Thomas_Lerman|Thomas_Lerman]] 18:17, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
