[[FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject Utah Hows#Adding_Links|Add links]] to online cemetery records for each of the 29 counties in Utah.  
 
It is expected this task will take less than 15 minutes per county, after the first county you do.
 
{{Tip|Since you will be "toggling" between this task page and the county page, you may want to have both pages open at the same time. Simply right-click on '''Project page''' (colored section on the right) and select either "Open in new window" or "Open in new tab."}}

'''Step 1:''' Check the Wiki page for the county you are working on. If information is already in the ''Cemeteries'' section of that page, ....

=== Step 1: Prepare the county Wiki page  ===
 
Under the '''Cemeteries''' heading, simply press ''Enter'' three times to move any existing content down and make room for what you will add.
 
NOTE: we repect the work of others, so we don't want to change their work at this point in the task.
 
=== Step 2: Copy the Templates for the Cemeteries area  ===
<div style="padding-bottom: 1.4em; overflow-x: auto; overflow-y: hidden; width: 99%; border-right: rgb(221,221,221) 1px solid" id="imageContainer">
{| style="background-color: rgb(255,255,204)" border="1" cellpadding="5"
|-
| bgcolor="#ffff99" align="left" | A template is a standard paragraph that is used over and over. Using a template allows updates or changes to be made once and appear wherever the template has been placed.<br>When you are in WikiText, a template is surrounded by two "squiggly brackets" <nowiki>{{template name}}</nowiki>
|}
</div>
In this step, you will copy, then paste templates to the county under the "Cemeteries" heading. Here's how:
<div style="padding-bottom: 1.4em; overflow-x: auto; overflow-y: hidden; width: 99%; border-right: rgb(221,221,221) 1px solid" id="imageContainer">
{| style="background-color: rgb(252,213,180)" border="1" cellpadding="5"

| Highlight and copy all of it
*Be sure you are not in ''Edit'' mode
*Get the two squiggly brackets at the very beginning <nowiki>{{</nowiki> and at the very end <nowiki>}}</nowiki>

|}
</div>
 
=== Step 3: Finish the Find A Grave information  ===
 
In this step, you will edit the link to Find A Grave to match the county you are working on. Here's how:

'''Step 2:''' Copy (in WikiText) the following and paste it (in WikiText) to the ''Cemeteries'' section of the county page.  
*Utah burial database
**To get this database ready, create template: Needs to explain only the first 200 are shown. If you need additional results, please refine your query. [http://history.utah.gov/burials/execute/searchburials Utah Cemetery and Burial Database] by Utah State History a division of Utah Department of Community and Culture.
**Can people search by county? Yes, but with only 200 results displayed. Tell the choices. Link to the spot, does not need to be changed county by county.

*Billion Graves
*Cemeteries for Utah -- google search for Utah Cemeteries
*[http://www.epodunk.com/cgi-bin/localList.php?local=22830&locTGroup=Cemeteries&direction=down&sec=0&qty=5&stateAbbv=&stateName= Beaver] Epodunk gives the names of the cemeteries in the county with a link to a map and more information such as address, phone number, and web site.

*[http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gs& Find A Grave] can be searched by the name of a person or family to find where a person is buried.

Volunteers are needed to check all 29 counties, adding items as appropriate. Please place four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>) in the "Volunteer" column next to the counties you choose for this task. This will automatically give your username and the date you signed up.
