FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject Copy Research Guidance and Help Content into the Wiki

The FamilySearch Research Help content was reviewed for possible inclusion in FamilySearch Research Wiki. This article documents the decisions that were made. The task to move content from FamilySearch Research Help to FamilySearch Research Wiki is now in the beginning stages of a wiki barn raising. The content that needs moving to the Wiki is divided by locality where possible:


 * United States
 * Canada
 * British Isles
 * International

The remaining content was either already moved to the Wiki, or was not specific to locality:

= Glossary Content To Be Copied =

The glossary in the Wiki was originally obtained from SourceGuide. The glossary on FamilySearch.org contains more content than what was copied from SourceGuide. The glossary on FamilySearch.org contains a lot of translations from foreign languages to English. It is possible that the foreign language words in the FamilySearch glossary are repeated in the Word Lists. Further analysis is needed to know for sure.
