Kudos go to ...
Nathan Murphy and the team who have been adding the online collections to the Wiki pages. Accessing those collections from the Wiki saved me a lot of time when I was researching my family, recently. Huge thanks for this resource and the links that have been provided!averyld

New Agenda Items
Benjamin Franklin "Living without a goal is like shooting without a target."

In an effort to move discussion items to completion, I am proposing that we use the following outline, subject to change, as a way to help us achieve that. This could be put in a table if we ever get the gridlines back! For instance, I have been contacting Wiki Project leaders to get the status of those projects on the page "Wiki Projects Seeking Contributors". I am proposing that we create an Archive page for the finished, cancelled or suspended pages that would have the link to the main project pages on it. Then, we could have a badge created for those pages so that people would know immediately that the project is finished, etc.


 * Goal for this item: Have an accurate list of ongoing projects


 * Steps to achieve this goal: 
 * Create an Archive page
 * Move project links to that page
 * Create a badge for the finished project main page
 * Get the badge on those pages


 * Assignments and dates of completion:
