3. Check the links listed in the contact information for the archives, libraries, museums, and/or societies.

4. If the link is broken, use the Wayback machine or Google to locate the correct link.

''NOTE:'' you do not need to locate additional archives, libraries, museums or societies.  Although, if only a website is given, we ask that you add the contact information using the instructions below:<br>

3. We would like each entry to have the following when available.<br>

6. '''Format name of society''': Add the name of the society in alpha order under the appropriate heading. Bold the name of the society. In Wikitext, use three apostrophes to bold the name. If a URL is in the title, remove the URL and add it to the end of the list to be formatted later.  There should be no bullet before the name of the society.<br><br>

<nowiki>'''Autauga County Genealogical Society'''<br></nowiki><br>

7. '''Format Address''': The address should be directly behind the name of the city and have a <nowiki><br></nowiki> after each portion of the address.<br> <br>

<nowiki>'''Autauga County Genealogical Society'''<br>1234 Main Street<br>Prattville, Alabama 36068-0668<br></nowiki><br>

<br> 8. '''Add Telephone''': If there is a telephone number, add it after the address using the example below. <br><br>

9. '''Add E-mail:''' If there is an e-mail address for the society, make the e-mail address into a clickable link by using the wikitext: <nowiki> [mailto:</nowiki>  as seen in the example below. The e-mail address goes directly after the telephone number.<br> <br>

10. '''Adding Website:''' Put the URL after the address and e-mail address on the page. If there is a website already listed on the page, change any exposed URLs so that the full URL does not appear. Use the example to help you enter the URL for the society. <br><br>

11. Make sure there is double <nowiki><br></nowiki> at the end of the listing.  This will make sure there is enough space between each listing.<br>

12. Use the Website link (if there is one) or use Google to confirm the contact information we have listed on the county page.  Change anything as necessary.

13. Sometimes additional information is listed under an archive, library, museum, or society.  If there is already information listed, format it so it is under the contact information. Use a colon in front of the information so it is indented. NOTE: YOU DO NOT NEED TO ADD MORE INFORMATION. We are only formatting in this project. <br><br>

<nowiki>Has an obituary collection in the Genealogy Room of the library.</nowiki><br>

14. Once you formatted all of the repositories and societies, preview the page to make sure links work and formatting is correct.  <br>

15. In the Edit Summary box add, formatted repositories and societies and save the page.<br>

16. Go back to the task list and put the date and sign up for a new span of counties. <br>
