Copy preset obituary paragraphs, templates, and links under the "Obituaries" heading for each of Utah's 29 counties. Then adapt the paragraphs and links to the county.  


FYI: Using templates allows wording to be consistent from county to county. Changes can be made in one place and appear wherever those templates were posted.

*Why? Having two windows opened makes it easy to switch between this "Task" page and the county page.  
Having both this "Task" page and the county page open at the same time allows you to switch between them easily.
**Tip: Sign in to the Wiki first, and you will be signed in for both windows.
*To open a new page:
**Right-click on the words '''Project page''' (shaded area at the right).  
**Select either "Open in new tab" or "Open in new window"


*To open a new window:  
:-With two windows opened, switch back and forth between them by holding the '''Alt''' key down and pressing the '''Tab''' key (Alt+Tab). Neat trick.
**Right-click '''Project page''' (located below the dark "Learn More" button in the shaded area at the right).
:-With two tabs opened, simply mouse betwee them.
**Select '''Open in new window''' from the options
 
Once you have two windows opened, switch back and forth between them by holding the '''Alt''' key down and pressing the '''Tab''' key (Alt+Tab). Neat trick.

1. Edit the county page in wikitext to replace the "x" with the current county name. You should have replaced an "x" five times with the new county name.


1. You will need to have two instances of the county page you are working on open. One for referencing information already contained on the county page, and one for your editing. (Remember, you will still have this instruction page open; so technically you will now have three open windows or tabs.)
2. The one you have open for referencing should NOT be in any kind of edit mode.
3. The one you have open for editing should be in Wikitext mode.

1. Using the county page opened in wikitext replace the "x" with the current county name. You should have replaced an "x" four times with the new county name.&nbsp;
2. Using your window or tab containing the "NOT in edit mode" county page, find the names of the neighboring counites. These names are found in the "Dates for major county records" chart located at the top of the page.<br>
3. Using the county page opened in wikitext, replace instances of neighbor1, neighbor2, neighbor3, etc with the names of the actual neighboring counties. <br>
4. Using the county page opened in wikitext, replace the instance of "neighboringstate" and "neighbor6" with the appropiate information if applicable. If not applicable, remove that line of code."Neighboring state" information is found on the same chart mentioned in step two--so if the chart doesn't mention a neighboring state, then there isn't one.<br>
