Updates and follow up

 * Widget for Wiki - any progress? (Nathan)

Business/Announcements

 * New Where are you researching? page     -- janellv
 * When we add the extension that makes the Talk pages much easier to use, can/should the talk pages be used for those who are researching in those areas to talk to each other? That duplicates the forums in some ways. Is that good or bad?
 * Bad to have multiple places for people to go to.
 * Good to give a specific place for questions rather than all of England, can go to the parish page
 * We need to start interlinking more - post wiki links on forums, post video links on wiki, post forum link on talk pages, etc.
 * In the past people have posted info about specific individuals - the wiki is not for that, for individuals, and where is the line if we start talking about questions about research?
 * Promoting a project or something new in the wiki   -- janellv
