FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject Civil Registration for Underserved Countries

Project Leader
Amber Larsen

Purpose
The purpose of this project is to standardize the format and content of the Civil Registration pages and add links for every country in the task list. These pages are often very helpful for people in underserved countries, as many of their records are not online/not available, and knowing about civil registration practices in their country can be important.

Step 1: Reformat Civil Registration Records Page
1. Navigate to the Civil Registration page for the country you signed up for in the Task List above. 2. Copy the following code, and paste it into the Civil Registration page. ==How to Find the Records== ===Offices to Contact=== ==Historical Background== ==Coverage and Compliance== ==Information Recorded in the Records== ==References==

3. Occasionally, a country's Civil Registration page may already have content on the page before you paste in the code above. In that case, analyze the pre-existing content and sort it to where it best fits under a respective heading from the code above. (This step can sometimes be confusing... contact Amber if you have any questions)
