Kudos go to ... 

Nathan Murphy and the team  who have been adding the online collections to the Wiki pages.  Accessing those collections from the Wiki saved me a lot of time when I was researching my family, recently.  Huge thanks for this resource and the links that have been provided!averyld

New Agenda Items

Benjamin Franklin "Living without a goal is like shooting without a target."

In an effort to move discussion items to completion, I am proposing that we use the following outline, subject to change, as a way to help us achieve  that.  This could be put in a table if we ever get the gridlines back!  For instance, I have been contacting Wiki Project leaders to get the status of those projects on the page "Wiki Projects Seeking Contributors".  I am proposing that we create an Archive page for the finished, cancelled or suspended pages that would have the link to the main project pages on it.  Then, we could have a badge created for those pages so that people would know immediately that the project is finished, etc.

• Goal for this item: Have an accurate list of ongoing projects 

• Steps to achieve this goal: 
• Create an Archive page
• Move project links to that page
• Create a badge for the finished project main page
• Get the badge on those pages
  

• Assignments and dates of completion:

• Evaluation date:averyld 18:09, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
