It seems Introduction to the FHL and Overview would do well to be merged into one article.

I can't find out how to order a film.. no help page or index for this feature

finding the film ordering page
Could you have a clear link to the film ordering page please. There is nothing to say where you go for information on ordering films. I looked in several places before finding the relevant page.

Once patrons have found their film number, a direct link on the top bar would take them straight to it.

Hard to read and understand
With so many links (wikitext) showing it is very hard to read. Hide the wikitext and have something to click on to access the links.

So where's "How to access materials"?
To get to this page I clicked on a link saying "Learn more about the catalog and how to access materials."

OK--I learned more about the catalog. Now, if I've found something, where do I go next? (I know, but others may not.) This page doesn't seem to point me to such info.

Searching places in the catalog
I am a retired librarian of about 40 years, and found locating references in the new catalog on FamilySearch confusing. I could use the old catalog with ease!

I finally found what I wanted as I knew it must be there. I was looking for Probate records for Franklin Co., Virginia.

It might be helpful to have an example on the article:

United States, Virginia, Franklin

Thank you. Leonard
