Part 1: Task List and Talk Page

 * 1. Choose a Task List above to work on.
 * Put your name in the Contributor Name column(s) of the Task List. You can choose how many parishes you want to work on during each work period. This way multiple people can work on the same county at the same time without.


 * 2. Choose a parish page (links are embedded in the Parish name).
 * Step1_NBI_Google_Sheet.png


 * 3. Click on the Talk tab at the top left of the page.
 * ** For every Wiki page - in this case, Acton, Cheshire Genealogy - there is an associated talk page that is used by contributors to discuss improvements about the Wiki page. In this project, we are using the Talk page as a sandbox to add content to the parish table before we move the completed table back to the Wiki page. **

 * 4. The TGEN code we will be updating is located here:

 * This is what it looks like in the table:

 * Tgen 2.png


 * 5. Go to Parish Registers Online and click on your county located on the left side of the page. Scroll down to find your parish, which is on the right side of the page.

If Parish is Not Found in List
Option 1: If the parish is missing baptisms, marriages, or burials then put a  on the line instead of the brackets.
 * For example:
 * The parish of Bedford St Mary only has marriages 1802-1802 (there are no baptisms or burials). This is what the code will look like:

|- | bgcolor="#ffffcc" | TGEN | bgcolor="#ffcccc" | | bgcolor="#ffcccc" | | bgcolor="#ccffcc" | 1802-1802 | bgcolor="#ccffcc" | | bgcolor="#ccffff" | | bgcolor="#ccffff" | Option 2: If the parish is not found at all in the list, delete it from the table. There are 2 places to delete in the table:
 * Location 1: near the beginning of the code:
 * Tgen 8.png


 * Location 2: near the end of the code:
 * Tgen 9.png

NOTE: If you are unsure what to delete, put a note in the comments column of the spreadsheet and we will delete it for you.
