Talk:Birmingham, Warwickshire Genealogy

Breadcrumb Trail
Just an explanation about the Breadcrumb Trail at the top of the page:

This is used for navigating back to a higher jurisdiction than the page you are on. So the highest place is first (country or state, usually), then the next smallest, until you get to the title of the page you are on. The title of the page is bolded but not a link as you are already on that page. The rest are links and italicized.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me!

Page Legitimacy
Respectfully, may I suggest that this page be deleted because 1) it's redundant to the Birmingham St Martin, Warwickshire Genealogy and the other parish pages for Greater Birmingham, and, more crucially, it 2) buries and 'camouflages' the more important and detailed [existing] page[s] of especially the Birmingham St Martin and other Greater Birmingham Parish pages, 3) the subject topics have ALREADY been constructed with hours and hours-worth of detailed data content for most Parishes, and 4) the current page distracts the user and prevents them from accessing all the other important Birmingham parish pages because it dead-ends the user on that particular page! They can't navigate to the more detailed data found on Birmingham's other parish pages... When I came to work on the Birmingham "Parish" and its Church Records section, I had difficulty in finding anything that would help me land where I needed to in order to access and edit/construct these pages, let alone find anything about the respective histories and the other topics for each of Birmingham's parishes--which are rich in content. So if I had difficulty in finding the right page[s], then most of our users/readers are having the same user-experience... Please, let's discuss if needed, or just delete it. My name is Phil, and my ext. is 2-3526.

Thank you, Phil! My name is Beverly and I am a Wiki Support Missionary working out of Omaha! I understand your concerns and agree that there is a LOT of duplication not only in the English pages but in the whole Wiki. I will pass this along to our Supervisor over content (Danielle Batson) to see how she would like to deal with this. Brepouille/Wiki Support Team (talk) 20:42, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
