Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | If I remember correctly, the FamilySearch Library used to have a list of professional researchers that patrons could reference if they needed professional research help. My understanding was that the professionals were vetted, both their research credentials and that they had an honest business.This protected both the reputation of FamilySearch and the Library but also mitigated fiscal exposure if a patron was unhappy with the service they received from the professional. The professionals list on the wiki doesn't appear to have any vetting. It looks like anyone, valid pros and fraudesters alike can add themselves to the list with no more than a working FamilySearch login.Additionally, I'm told that the links and text associated with advertisements were removed from the wiki over the past few years. The policy of putting ads back on the list flies in the face of that older policy opening up wounds from the earlier removal process. --Ldrew 20:29, 26 July 2012 (UTC) |
