Improve the Wiki

• State topics Blitz. You may have noticed that many state topics pages are being edited. The 1940 Census landing pages are advertizing U.S. state topic Wiki pages (example: California (see right side bar "California Research Topics" and "FamilySearch Wiki Articles"). This could be very good and give the Wiki lots of exposure!

Staff at the Family History Library are frantically (we we're forewarned this was coming :) ) trying to make sure all these pages are presentable. Things we're trying to fix include: (1) dead links, (2) outdated information, (3) reducing oversized iimages, and (4) repairing reference errors. Volunteers are welcome to help. Contact me if you'd like to help: Danielle Batson.
