Updates and follow up

 * The Donations article describes how to donate PDF files of records such as cemeteries, compiled genealogies, etc. to FamilySearch Books (formerly BYU Family History Archive). Does anyone have something to donate? It could be beneficial to us all to have someone actually go through this process and see how it works. Murphynw 00:22, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

New Agenda Items

 * Could you see on a state or country page, at or near the top, something like "The 3 most important things to know about researching in Kentucky" with a format underneath similar to how wikiHow does their steps? -- janellv 16:26, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
