Instructions for Adding FamilySearch HR Collections[edit | edit source]
Adding to the All - Formatted List tab[edit | edit source]
Part 1 - Analyze the Collection Link[edit | edit source]
1. Locate a collection to add on the New Collections Spreadsheet: FS New Collections tab.
2. Add your name to column B to sign up for that new collection.
3. Click on the link for the new collection found in Column F.
Part 2 - Creating the Collection Link[edit | edit source]
1. Open up a Sandbox page where you can create the new link.
2. Create the new link by using the following wikitext code listed below:
More Instructions found on the Manual of Style
FamilySearch Collections With RecordSearch Template
*'''DATE-DATE''' {{RecordSearch|CID|TITLE OF COLLECTION}} at FamilySearch — [[TITLE OF HISTORICAL RECORDS WIKI PAGE|How to Use this Collection]]; index & images
Part 3 - Creating an Also at[edit | edit source]
- More instructions found on the Manual of Style Wiki page.
1. Sometimes, FamilySearch exchanges indexes and images with other websites. When reviewing the collections on the page, if the titles are exactly, they are the same. Thus, you will use an Also at: statement.
2. Use the following to create the Also at portion of the collection link.
Example:
''Also at: [URL FamilySearch] ''
3. The phrase, index & images can be added if it is different from the original website. For instance, if FamilySearch has an index and images but Ancestry only has the index, you would do the following:
Example of wikitext:
''Also at: [URL WEBSITENAME] index ($)''
Part 4 - Placing the Link on Wiki Pages[edit | edit source]
Note: Other projects may add a collection onto the Wiki before we do. Be sure to check the links already on the page. If you find it already there, state on the spreadsheet that it has already been added.
- The collection needs to be analyzed before determining where it should go.
- Use the guidelines found on the New Collections Project, Placing the Collection tab to help you determine where the collection should go.
