[[User:ElizabethSnow|Liz Snow]] 20:39, 11 April 2012 (UTC)I tried the Box Elder County. Here are my questions: 1. I thought the Alt + Tab was confusing since we already have two pages open. Not sure I fixed or helped explain this. Please review. [[User:AdkinsWH|AdkinsWH]] 22:04, 11 April 2012 (UTC) 2. Step 3 A says to go to the Project and learn the newspapers digitized for the project. I wasn't quite sure what project you were referring to in the beginning of the sentence. Also I think the sentence would be better if it said, " identify" instead of "learn". Is it better now [[User:AdkinsWH|AdkinsWH]] 22:04, 11 April 2012 (UTC) 3. The part about reviewing anything put in the newspaper heading previously and adapt to our format, is a little ambiguous. What is our format? | [[User:ElizabethSnow|Liz Snow]] 20:39, 11 April 2012 (UTC)I tried the Box Elder County. Here are my questions: 1.

Hope this isn't too critical. I was just trying to help those who might not know everything. Also, on the Box Elder page in the Chronicling America page it doesn't come up with any results. Did I do something wrong? Hope this helps. [[User:ElizabethSnow|Liz Snow]] 20:39, 11 April 2012 (UTC) | Hope this isn't too critical. I was just trying to help those who might not know everything.

:Never too critical, simply trying to improve — exactly what I wanted.[[User:AdkinsWH|AdkinsWH]] 22:04, 11 April 2012 (UTC) | |||
<u>'''Note for Wilma when she does "List by Towns" page for Weber co, Utah:'''</u><br> | |||
Weber co - ''Sentinel News'' is not in Chronicaling America<br> | |||
'''<u>Do we want to develop a protocol for cordination between newspaper template on county page and existing "X county Newspapers" page?:</u>'''[open for discussion in Wed meeting] | |||
Utah co - This county already has a separate Utah County Newspaper page. Yikes--we so haven't covered this issue! See county page and separate Utah co. newsaper page and talk page for how I attempted to handle it<br> | |||
<u>'''Blips Jana and Liz ran into, but are resolving a standard practice for:'''</u> | |||
finding I tend to put present day newspaper website links that are already on page...at bottom of newspaper template; not that we are really listing things chronologically<br> | finding I tend to put present day newspaper website links that are already on page...at bottom of newspaper template; not that we are really listing things chronologically<br> | ||
No Utah Digital sources for Washinton co; but left template in w/ indented bullet "none at present time"; thought might be better than removing altogether??...we did opposite w/ FHL cat template--since there were no links we didn't put in...guess I thought might be greater probabliity that Utah Digit. might soon get a source whereas FHL not so likely..true thought?<br> | No Utah Digital sources for Washinton co; but left template in w/ indented bullet "none at present time"; thought might be better than removing altogether??...we did opposite w/ FHL cat template--since there were no links we didn't put in...guess I thought might be greater probabliity that Utah Digit. might soon get a source whereas FHL not so likely..true thought?<br> | ||
