Step 1:
'''1. Select the "Edit Source" tab to edit your state page. The top of the page should look something like this:'''

Or, it might look something like this:



'''2. We want our taxation pages to be standardized. So beneath the above text, insert the following to help you organize the information on this page:'''


 * == Online Resources ==
 * *0000-0000 - [URL HERE NAME OF COLLECTION] at NAME OF WEBSITE (Free /$)


 * == Why Use Tax Records ==


 * === County Level ===


 * === State Level ===


 * == Tax Laws ==


 * == References ==

Step 2: Online Resources
'''1. Examine the information on your state page. Are there any online databases on this page already? If so, you will need to move that link to underneath online resources. Open the link to the database and copy the URL. Replace "URL HERE" with your link. It should look like this:
 * *0000-0000 - NAME OF COLLECTION at NAME OF WEBSITE (Free /$)

'''2. Insert the name of the collection into the template, as well as the name of the website. Because this database is from Ancestry, this example would look like this:
 * 0000-0000 - Tennessee, Early Tax List Records, 1783-1895 at Ancestry.com (Free /$)

'''3. Insert years. These are the years that the record collection covers. It should now look like this:
 * 1783-1895 - Tennessee, Early Tax List Records, 1783-1895 at Ancestry.com (Free /$)

If you have multiple online resources, you will want to put them in numerical order, by beginning year. '''4. Insert references. Because this collection requires a subscription to view it, you will need to include information that it costs money. However if the collection is from FamilySearch, then you won't need to add anything. (Because it's free!)''' Here's an example of an online collection from Ancestry:
 * 1783-1895 - Tennessee, Early Tax List Records, 1783-1895 at Ancestry.com (Free /$)

Here's an example of an online collection from FamilySearch:


 * 1862-1874''' - Images only.
