User talk:Lembley

Thanks, Sister Embley, for continually contributing to the Virginia portion of the Wiki. As the moderator for this section, I hope that you will continue your efforts. Wouldn't it be great if the Wiki could become the most comprehensive starting point for researchers?Gregorybean 04:23, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Where should wikiproject contributors communicate?
People who work on writing projects on the wiki are asking for an online venue they can use to talk about...


 * how to organize projects,
 * how and where to recruit contributors
 * how to motivate project members
 * how to track progress on projects
 * Manual of Style issues that we need to settle to avoid rework
 * ...and other stuff.

Could you go to the wiki feedback forum and give your opinion as to what tool(s) we should choose to communicate? The thread where we will discuss this is Which tools for wikiproject contributors to communicate? Ritcheymt 16:24, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Please vote on new name for Reviewer role
The wiki community is voting on a proposed renaming of the Reviewer role so that we can give the role to anyone we trust to upload their own images without review. If you care about the name of this role, please discuss the issue and cast your vote at FamilySearch Wiki talk:Reviewer. Ritcheymt 16:47, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

What are the implications of copy and pasting text via wikitext versus using FCK editor?
Brushforth wrote a great little piece on primary sources, and put it on his talk page. I copied the text, searched for the words "What is a Primary Source?" and then clicked on the red result "What is a Primary Source?" to create the page. I switched to wiki text editor and pasted the full article and clicked on "save." The article appears to be saved, but when I click "edit" it just spins and then comes back "done." I opened another tab and another session of fs wiki, and searched for "What is a Primary Source" and nothing comes back. Help! --Lise 16:41, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
