Soliciting your opinion
Hey Fran, will you weigh in on "Local Histories" or "Histories" heading on county pages? I want to reach consensus on this quickly in order to get a big missionary team engaged in FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject Linking to Books in the BYU Family History Archives. Thanks in advance!

Canada
Hi Fran, I noticed you were adding the provinces of Canada into the Browse by Country. Is that what we are really wanting to do? I would think we would only have countries in that article and no lower juristiction. The country should have the lower juristiction, like the states in the USA.

 * Thanks for the note about the changes to the list of countries. I was given the task this sprint to make the browse by locality more intuitive, especially for Canada. In fact that was the only suggestion for changes to the browse by locality. Now that Canada is done, I'm not sure what other improvements are needed. Anyway, the task was added to our backlog of work to be done. The task was also prioritized and high enough on the list of things to do that I was able to pick it up and get it done this sprint (Nov 13-Dec 9). Franjensen 19:42, 13 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Okay, I am not sure that adding the Canadian provinces to the country browsing is the best things. It can open a can of worms. Maybe that should be discussed in the forum and/or users' group. This is obviously just my opinion at this time. Sorry, I forgot to add my signature to my previous post. I have added it in. Thomas Lerman 19:57, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Transferring old FHL documents task page.
Typo found in one of the task document links, was missing the second ] in it, once fixed it is red so you'll see it, might be that the linked to page is not up yet?

Impressive! Update?
I am impressed with what you've done to Maryland Cemeteries, Fran! As the barn raising winds down, I want to get a feel for how each article on the Maryland Barn Raising Tasks is coming along so I can tell where to allocate any help that contributors can give for a last push. Could you either send me a message by editing my User Discussion page or go to the Maryland Barn Raising Tasks page and update the column on the % of "doneness" the article is at now?

Reference problem
After you and I discovered the bug in the IE browser, I decided to go one step further, getting home to check Firefox browser. It has same problem so it is not unique to one browser but apply to others browsers. dsammy 03:06, 8 March 2009 (UTC) (Thanks for the additional testing. I will report this as well.
