FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject Wales Infobox - Hundred

Purpose
Some countries in the Wiki have infoboxes on each of the parish pages that gives more precise jurisdictional information for each parish. We have added the infobox template to all of the parish pages in Wales so we can add that information as well. This is very helpful for the researchers, as it tells them what jurisdictional levels held their records.

Task List
Task List

Sign up on Task List
1. Go to the Task List and put your name in the "Name" column for the respective Wiki pages you'd like to work on. 2. Click on the name of the wiki page you signed up for. The name is linked to the actual Wiki page and will take you directly to that page.

Find the Hundred
3. Check the breadcrumb at the top of the page (the series of jurisdictions separated by arrow icons), and locate the historic county your parish was in. 4. Remembering that county name from the breadcrumb in step 3, go to the Wikipedia Hundred list. 5. In the Table of Contents of the Wikipedia Hundred list, locate the name of your county under "The Hundreds of Wales". (Your county will be listed as a number beginning with 40 in the table of contents). 6. In the example used so far, the county has been Cardiganshire. Continuing that example, clicking on "Cardiganshire" in the table of contents will take you directly to that section of the Hundreds list. 7. Click on the first blue link in the bulleted list under your county. When it takes you to that page, use Ctrl+F (or Cmd+F if on a Mac), and search for the parish name on that page. 8. If you do find your parish name on that Hundred page, then continue to step 9. If you  do not find your parish name, go back to the bulleted list of Hundreds under your county name and try the next blue link. If you have tried all the blue links for that county and still cannot find your parish name on any of the pages, then mark "None" in the Notes column of the task list, and continue on to the next parish. 
 * Note 1: Below is a color-coded screenshot of what you may encounter in this list. The large red circle is the content under the Cardiganshire heading. Notice that all of Cardiganshire's bullet points are in black text, and are not clickable links. In this case, there is no way for us to distinguish which Hundred our Cardiganshire parish is in, as we can't access the Hundred page(s). In the task list, mark "None" in the Notes column for that parish, and continue on to the next parish.
 * Note 2: The image below also shows the Carmarthenshire content as a comparison for other things you may encounter. The smaller red circle under Carmarthenshire is an example of a red link you may find. That indicates that content for that Hundred is not available. But you'll notice that there are some blue links (circled in green) under Carmarthenshire. From here, continue on to step 7.
 * Note: You may also need to search for variations of that name... to see if your parish name has variations, check the parish page on the FS Wiki.

Adding the Hundred to the Infobox
9. If you found your parish name on one of the Hundred pages, copy the name of the Hundred (usually in the page title), and go to the FS Wiki parish page for your parish. 10. Click Edit source next to the "History" heading (or equivalent) on the parish page, and locate the infobox template code. It will look something like the following: 11. Where the code says  | Hundred = add here , delete the "add here", and paste the name of the Hundred you found. 12. Before you save, put "Added Hundred" in the Summary box. Then click "Save changes".
