Create Place Holder on Home page[edit | edit source]

Create Place Holder on Homepage (Done - Created FamilySearch Research Wiki Portal)

Deleting or archiving pages[edit | edit source]

My first thoughts on this would be to allow pages to be deleted or archived for future deletion. It seems like the number of pages would get out of control after a while. However, broken links could then be a problem unless the task of fixing links is somehow made automatic. Maybe this can be taken care of by not allowing a page to be deleted/archived if other pages are linked to it.

The other problem could occur if someone does not like what someone else wrote. They can just delete the page. Problems could occur if a battle starts up. Maybe only the author can delete? I am curious how Wikipedia handles all of this.

See discussion at Edit a page

How do I upload files or images?[edit | edit source]

The article Uploading files or images has minimal information. We need additional instructions.

Creating and Populating Tables[edit | edit source]

I seem to be able to create a table, specify the number of rows and columns, size of cell, etc. But I couldn't get the table centered. I used the centering feature but the table remained on the left side of the page. What am I doing wrong. Also, how do I populate the cells of the table. As I started to type in a cell, the sizes of the columns changed. Jbparker 11:14, 14 February 2008 (MST)
