'''PLEASE NOTE:'''<br>
*Red links on a page (no wiki page) show up as pink and as broken. Just skip these.
*Ignore broken links for FamilySearch.org.  They will be fixed later.
*Only concern yourself with pink links on the actual Wiki page.  You do not have to worry about links on the left navigation bar or at the top of the page. 
*Note that the report may give more broken links than appear pink on the page. Just focus on the evident pink links on content we can change.<br>
*If you find a broken link that is on more than one page, we will have you report it on the spreadsheet. More information is below in Part B. Danielle can do a Replace Text to fix them all at once. <br>
*If the wiki page does not respond when you click on Broken Link Checker red A, try closing Chrome and opening it up again.<br>
