Known Issues/Questions

 * Page length (how many screens? when to break out sub-topics? should all libraries have their own pages and be linked back to every county and city page?)
 * Duplication and referencing within articles (should a great obituary listing at a public library be cross-referenced under newspapers and libraries?)
 * Use of bullets and indents (for items in a series, yes. for plain text, no.)
 * When a resource includes a date range, should that be presented in bold at the start of the line or fall at the end? (See Church Records in the McHenry County, Illinois article)
 * Links to FHL books and other on-circulating materials (since the vast majority of readers won't be reading the wiki from the FHL, shouldn't books be linked to OCLC or WorldCat and not the FHL catalog? If fiche don't circulate, shouldn't there be some explanation of how to get to the info?)
 * Use of color in tables - should we have a standard or let everyone create their own color palette?)
 * "Text density" - how much text should any one page hold, and how to encourage the use of images and tables to help users glean more information more quickly.
 * How should phone numbers be written - dashes, spaces or dots between area code and number (or should they use an auto-link)? Should they be prefaced with the word "Phone"? Should fax numbers be included (when no one is likely to make an initial contact via fax)?
 * Deep linking versus linking to a resource main page.
 * Identifying the best, more readily-accessible resources so that they aren't buried so deeply in text that no one will read far enough to discover them?
 * Digital books - format to communicate which provider (Google, Internet Archive, private library, etc.)

family history center (This term is not trademarked and is not capitalized.) (Is this still true? What about FamilySearch Centers?)
