Purpose
In the creation of many of the Latin America municipality pages, we weren't able to create the language links between the Spanish and English wikis. This project will consist of locating the correct corresponding page, and add in the link.

Instructions
1. Open the Task List, and add your name to the Name column for the page you want to sign up for.

2. Click on the English Locality Page link and go to that English Wiki page. 

Fix Spanish Page
3. In a separate window, open the Spanish Wiki, and do a search search for the same locality. Start typing the name of the locality in the English Wiki search bar, and find the matching page (diacritics or accent marks do not matter in your searching, so don't panic). An example of equivalent pages in the two Wikis is below: English: Abasolo, Periférica, Nuevo León, Mexico Genealogy Spanish: Abasolo, Periférica, Nuevo León, México - Genealogía 
 * Note: by this point, you should have the same locality page in both the English and Spanish Wikis.

4. Click "Edit Source" at the top of the English page to edit the entire page.

5. Scroll down to the bottom of the English Wiki page and locate the language link code. It begins with: [[es:

6. On the corresponding Spanish wiki page, Copy the full Spanish page name.

7. Back on the English page, Paste that Spanish page name to replace everything after the es: code, and end it with two square brackets. An example of correct code is below: [[es:Abasolo, Periférica, Nuevo León, México - Genealogía 

8. Add the following into the edit summary: Fixed language link. 

9. Click "Save changes" to save the page. 

10. You should see a link at the bottom of the left-hand sidebar that says "Spanish". Click on that "Spanish" link, and make sure it goes to the correct corresponding Spanish page.



11. If the link is correct, continue on to the page in the task list.
