Decisions
Can someone help me understand why we need pages for all towns in Illinois? Of course they have church records and cemetery records and libraries, but to me it is more helpful in Illinois to make access to those records from the county page -- or an added page such as xx county Cemeteries.
 * If there are specific records at a town level, they should be mentioned on the county level, in my opinion, so less-experienced people will find them. For example, let's say there are several church records in the county for a particular denomination. It would seem more helpful to users to list under that denomination all congregations in the county,
 * I'd like to understand, as I would like to remove those towns from the list on the main page. I'll post this on Yammer, as well AdkinsWH 02:40, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Resolution: 1) Only county seat pages will be created, unless there are exceptional collections for other towns. 2) Any exceptional collections need to be mentioned on the county page under appropriate topics, and linked to the deeper details on the city page.

Content Team To Do's

 * The page "Help wanted on the Illinois pages" needs rearranging. I will work on this soon. Waiting for help with two hub looks: one for the state portion and another for the county portion. AdkinsWH 22:23, 25 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Illinois Online Birth, Marriage, Death Records
 * Add the Learn more tab and determine where the link should go.
 * Move the contents to appropriate areas of Illinois Vital Records page, update that page as needed to be helpful.
 * Fix the links on the Illinois home page to the appropriate area of Illinois VR page.
 * I will work on this AdkinsWH 21:30, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
