	The list of suitable types of content for the wiki does not currently include anything about Family History Societies which would be useful to researchers. What does the community think about adding something to the first part of the article about them and their place in wiki content? --[[User:Cottrells\|Steve]] {{toolbar\|[[User talk:Cottrells\|talk]]\|[[Special:Contributions/Cottrells\|contribs]]}} 19:35, 8 November 2011 (UTC)		The list of suitable types of content for the wiki does not currently include anything about Family History Societies which would be useful to researchers.

			:I agree the content needs to be revised to include societies, but also the family organizations or family societies. There is a template that can be used for adding content to a society page. This can would be helpful for all types of society pages: genealogical societies, historical societies, surname societies, family societies, family organizations. One example of a family or surname society page that could be created in the wiki is for the [http://www.townsendsociety.org/ Townsend Society]. These societies are welcome to have a page in the wiki about their society and include a link to their website if they have one. So if the appropriate topics section of this article is not clear or does not address this subject, then yes it needs to be revised. --[[User:JensenFA\|Fran]] {{toolbar\|[[User talk:JensenFA\|talk]]\|[[Special:Contributions/JensenFA\|contribs]]}} 18:11, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
