User:SvareJM/Sandbox/Project Instructions

Purpose
These instructions will help you create links to selected images in the United States, Union Provost Marshal's File of Papers Relating to Civilians Historical Records collection.

Not all of the papers in this collection require links. You only need to provide links to papers identified in the article African American Contraband Records.

Set-up
Open two browser tabs or windows using these links:
 * African American Contraband Records, Coverage Table - FamilySearch Historical Records - this is the article where the links will go
 * Records by Number and Date - this is the collection where you will find the folders containing the images to which you will create links.

Instructions

 * 1) In the African American Contraband Records article the number in the Record No. column identifies the papers that need links. Edit the page by clicking on the Edit source link or by pressing Shift-Ctrl-E.
 * 2) On the tab with the images the records are grouped by date and document number. Each of these corresponds to a digital folder of images.
 * 3) Find the description that contains the record number you need to add the link for. For example, if you want to add the link to record "3669, Received from Gun Boat, February, 1863", find the folder that contains the range where that number would be. In this case, it is "03634-03928, Feb. 1863".
 * 4) Each new set of records is stamped with a consecutive record number. Find the image where "3669" is stamped on the document. This image is 108 of 1380. If you are viewing multiple images, change the view so you are only seeing the single image. Press Ctrl-l to highlight the URL in the browser window, then press Ctrl-c to copy it.
 * 5) In the African American Contraband Records article, go to the row in the table where this record number appears and enter a left square bracket and a space ([ ) before the record number, then paste in the URL for that image by pressing Ctrl-v.
 * 6) Go to the end of the record number and enter a right square bracket (]) to complete the link.
 * 7) Click on Show preview or press Shift-Ctrl-p to preview you changes and verify the link works.
 * 8) If the link works, click Save changes.

Repeat this for each line in the table on the African American Contraband Records page. Verifying your work and saving changes after each line will help to reduce the possibility for errors.


 * 1) As you go along correct any spelling errors you find, and spell out any abbreviated state names.

Purpose
The articles listed below have a section called Record Finder. This was replaced by the Research Helps section, but these articles were missed when the change was made.

Set-up
When you select one of the articles to edit right-click the link and select Open in new tab or hold down the Ctrl key to open the link in the new tab. This will keep this tab open so you do not have to use the back button or your history on your browser to return to it.

Instructions

 * 1) For each article, delete the Record Finder header and replace it with the Research Helps header and section text. See the Research Helps section of the document template for instructions on how to complete the section.
 * 2) After you have made the changes click on Show preview or press Shift-Ctrl-p to preview your changes.
 * 3) If the information is correct click Save changes.

Special Instructions

 * For the Mormon Migration Database collection use Utah as the locality
 * The the Newspapers.com Obituaries collection use United States as the locality
