1. A new name appears on the sign-up list.

2. First check User Contributions (on Special Pages).


 * a.  If the user has made valid contributions to the wiki, then grant them rights (User Rights Management) to edit on the wiki.  Then send them email #4 telling them their privileges have been granted.
 * b.   If the username is registered, but there are no contributions then investigate the person.
 * 1. Check the FHC Director spreadsheet.  If their e-mail address appears there, then you know they are a valid contributor and you can grant them user rights and send them email #4e if the person appears there.  If they appear there, then you know they are most likely a valid user and you can grant them rights and send them email #4
 * 2. Check the LDS intranet to see if they are a member.  If so, they are most likely a valid contributor and you can granat them editing rights and send them email #4
 * 3. Go to Google and Google their email address and username (if they gave one) separately.
 * a. If they appear on Ancestry or FindAGrave, look to see their contribution there. If it is real, then they are a valid contributor and you can grant them uesr rights and send them email #4
 * b. If the e-mail address appears anywhere else, check that site to see if it is a list of known spammers or a valid entry.
 * 1. If a name is on a known spammer list, then send email #3.
 * 2. If the e-mail does not come up in a Google search, and they did not tell you where they wanted to edit, then send them email #4 to verify their address and see where they want to edit.
 * 3. If they have already given you information about the page they want to edit and what they want to contribute, send email #5


 * c   If they gave you no username, use email #2 to request that information.
 * d   If they gave you a username that is not registered, use "email #1" to let them know and ask for the correct uername
