User talk:TimothyNB

Tim,

I'm not familiar with User talk pages completely, but I assume it is a place for users to communicate to other specific users.

I am curious about the PA Statewide Deaths wiki article Pennsylvania Statewide Deaths (FamilySearch Historical Records) and I would like to know about any discussions FamilySearch has had with PA law or policy makers. I know we in PA have been trying to get the law changed for years so that you will be allowed to put this online. I was kind of shocked to find out this page shows that the FHL has these on microfilm. I am guessing FS had to sign a contract not to share them with anyone?

Thanks,

We do have contractual agreements with the record holder which allow us to post on-line. Our contractural agreements are confidential.

Changing article titles

Hi Nadine, I noticed that you copied the text of the article England, Lancashire – Cheshire – Yorkshire Church of England Parish Registers (FamilySearch Historical Records) to England, Manchester Central Library Church of England Parish Registers (FamilySearch Historical Records) before marking the former for deletion. This method results in the revision history being lost. Is there a reason why the article could not have been renamed/moved instead? --Steve 14:33, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

We combined two articles which covered the same collection, but had different titles. The article with the hypens in the title was causing problems with the search feature so it was article targeted for deletion.
