Follow-up and Priority items for this meeting:
watch for this next week Patrolling People patrolling are letting certain things go on talk page: We will share in Thursday meeting and Sandra will train next week.

1. Answer questions posted on talk pages. If you do not know the answer, put a Helpme template.

After a question is answered, put helpme-helped template. These go to Sandra. If it is Historical Records there is a different template for them. See example.

2. Format the talk page giviing a title to the question. 3. If there is no signature, use — Preceding unsigned comment added by user name  (talk | contribs)  17:57, 12 February 2014 (UTC) and go to the history to find the username and the date. 4. If you answer a question, indent below the question. Then answer the question. 5. If you patrol a talk page that is older, you need to fix the whole page if it has not been done in the past. See Clean up talk pages.


 * Priority Item.- Patrolling seems to be taking a backseat to projects. We need Everyone to do some everyday. What's the solution for everyone to take part? Are their members of the team who feel they are exempt? Charles will keep us posted on Skype how patrolling is doing

Following "wanted pages" not covered


 * (From training spotlight last week, which was not covered) Take up the opportunity and go to the following pages Wanted Categories and follow instructions on the |How to Create Wanted Categories or go to Wanted Pages and follow the instructions at How to Create Wanted Pages. Most of the new categories are being created by the FamilySearch Historical Records Team to follow the creation and names order. The main categories they can be put into are Category:(State or Country name) FamilySearch Historical Records


 * Example: I copied the Title, divided the Title up and added the two categories.The first category would be Just the county or state. The second is the region plus the FamilySearch Historical Records. Have fun. Thanks so much for all you each do. (Over kill. Yes or maybe? Oh well enjoy.) This has all been completed by the FamilySearch Historical Records Team.
