User:AdkinsWH/Sandbox Church Units

In Utah, so many LDS Church records exist in counties, the WikiProject Utah team decided to do a community approach, rather than individual congregations. (Meetings 9/12 and 9/26/2012)

The purpose of this page is to make it easy to copy and adapt the "pattern" developed by the team to each of the communities. The "pattern" itself is located on the Discussion page.)

Step 1. Copy the pattern without changing it
A) Click the Discussion tab at the top of this page B) Click the "Edit This Page" button. C) Select Wikitext D) Highlight (Ctrl+A) and copy (Ctrl+C) E) Cancel edit

Step 2. Paste the pattern to a (pre-determined) empty page
A) On the county page, go to the Churches and Religious Groups topic B) Click a red (inactive) link -- under the "Church of Jesus Christ..." heading C) In Wikitext, paste the pattern to the empty page D) Fill in edit Summary box: "copied pattern" and Save page

Step 3. Adapt the Pattern
A) Breadcrumb trail:
 * Change [county] to the current county (2 instances)
 * Change [place] to current town with comma
 * Fill in edit Summary, "Breadcrumb", Save page

B) Get correct pages from Jenson's Encyclopedic History.
 * Click on the link, search by place, scroll down to see page numbers
 * Hint: slide down to the alphabet for the place, and check the page(s) with hits to see which one is the beginning page. Then determine which is the ending page.
 * Get into edit WikiText again, and change p "5-6" to the pages for this place

C) Under "Obtain the Records":
 * Change "Beaver", [place] to current county, place

D) Below "References"
 * In Category, replace "Beaver" with current county
 * Type in the edit Summary box: "adapted to town" and Save page
