Task List
Project Instructions
Part One - Add Collection Links to Each County
1. Go to the Task List and click on the tab labeled, Add to Each County. It should be the first tab on the sheet. To find other tabs currently not shown, click on the four lines just left of the tabs and you will see a list of all tabs available.,br>
2. In the Column B, go to the first row available and sign your name.
3. Copy the collection link found in row 2 and the column you are working on.
4. Review the header you will put this link under. It is located directly above the link you copied.
5. Click on the county you signed up and the Wiki page will appear.
6. From the Contents at the top of the County Wiki page, find the header that was listed for this link and click on it.
7. Beside the Header, click on the Edit Source link and the wikitext will appear.
8. Review any collections that are listed. If the link you are adding is the same as one listed on the Wiki page, remove the old link and add the new one.
9. REMEMBER:
- Add the link in chronological order with the other links.
- If the other links are not properly formatted according to the Manual of Style, just ignore them. Another project will be fixing them.
- Put any links that don't have dates at the end of the list of links.
- If there are no other links listed, place it directly under either 1) after the intro or 2) after the subheader of Online Records. If Online Records is not listed, DO NOT ADD IT. It does not belong there.
10. After the link is in the correct place, click "show preview" to see if the link works.
11. If the link works, copy and paste the following:
