[[Image:Rewrite.png|right|75px|Write about]] FamilySearch Wiki is a tool people can use to learn how to find their ancestors. It offers information on how to find, use, and analyze records of genealogical value. The site’s content is variously targeted to beginners, intermediate researchers and experts.<ref>Today FamilySearch Wiki’s beginner content is quite sparse. Therefore, we will add research guidance, otherwise known as resolution flows or reference interviews, to enable beginners to find good research advice without having to know genealogical methodology or lingo. We will achieve this in a low-tech fashion without having to code anything new in the application. </ref>Some suitable types of content for the wiki are: | |||
*Instructions on how to find, use and analyze records that are genealogically useful. | |||
*Historical definitions of legal terms, occupations and other terms that are useful to genealogists. | |||
*Images of records used as examples of the kind of information a type of record will contain. | |||
