Talk:International Genealogical Index

IGI is a helpful tool Please bring it back.
In preparing my family records, I like to know when the temple ordinances were done and in which temple. The New Family Search often does not give that information. It only says the work is done. The old IGI gave us the information of which temple and what date. I do wish that information was still available. I know that much of the work was done in duplicate, sometimes 10 or 20 times. I realize that may be embarrassing, but it makes the point that we need to check for duplicates before we clear a name for ordinances. I really would like the ordinance dates and temples available again.

Page Name Change
The name of this page makes for very ugly URLs. In some cases it can appear as awful as https://wiki.familysearch.org/en/International_Genealogical_Index_%28IGI%29. What does everyone think about having the current page name redirect to a page titled "International Genealogical Index"? Acronyms should be handled in page content, not page title.

Thank you!
This explanation of the IGI (and what ended up where on the new iterations of FamilySearch.org) is the clearest, most helpful information I've seen on the topic. Thanks for taking the time to explain (and to link to the blog posts)! Lise 16:17, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

A Clear Explaination
This explains to me clearly why in some other - site(s) there is so much conflicting information. Here it is straight forward and I have found some minor errors, but on the whole the information is far more accurate. However, over the past couple of months, images which were on the site are no longer available. The more I understand the more I want to make sure my prior info is correct.those did verify my transcripts were correct.
