Would you like to add something to this Wiki -- Whether it's something small or a full article, it's easy! Click here for a guide to contributing on FamilySearch Research Wiki.

Getting started as a Contributor
Anyone can use the Research Wiki to obtain information about research and records, just about anywhere in the world. Some localities are becoming fairly well-developed. For other localities, little is known. Even in the more well-developed areas, there is always more detail that is known by only a few people. Maybe one of those people is YOU!

We welcome your input, even if that input is only information about the location of an obscure cemetery, or a link to a web site, or just about anything about the content, location, or use of a record.

Registering -- Identify yourself
In a Wiki environment, we need to communicate. Tell others who you are, how you know what you know, etc. Contributors (authors, editors, etc.) must register in order to make additions or changes to the content of FamilySearch Wiki. Your email address is protected and is available only to System Operators (SYSOPS). Here's how to register.

Logging On
One you are registered, all you need to remember is that editing or authoring information on FamilySearch Wiki requires you to sign in. Here's how.

Editing existing pages
Some of the information currently in FamilySearch Research Wiki has been "auto-imported" from previous publications. Most of it is good information. But some of it is out-of-date and needs to be corrected. New sources of information are constantly being found and new data bases are being created or located.

Because of the limitations of previously published material, more detail is needed to make the information about records more helpful.
