Purpose
We need to move the current (new) England parish tables found on parish pages to the parish Talk page. Then we need to restore the old version of the table to the parish page and add it to the talk page for future comparison.

Instructions
1. Go the Parish list listed above for the county to work on.

2. For a parish page, go to the talk page tab found in the left hand corner of the screen (directly beside the "Page" tab).

3. If the tab has not yet been created (you will know this because you will see, "Creating Talk" and will be in the edit source view.

4. Copy and paste the following code onto the Talk page and save the page:

== New Parish Table == == Old Parish Table == 5. Go back to the Page tab for the parish page and click on Edit source for the whole page.

6. Do a ctrl-F and search for "Cellspacing" on the page. This will take to you the correct part of the page for the tables.

7. Cut the current two parish tables (yes, you are removing them from the page. You are removing 2 tables: 1) the table with the abbreviations in it and 2) the actual parish table with the links to the databases and save the page.

8. Go to the talk page tab and click edit source.

9. Paste the table you cut from the Parish page tab and put it under the heading, New Parish Table. Then, save the page.

10. Go back to the Parish Page tab and click on View History tab (beside the Edit source tab).

11. Review the list of dates and go to a date before or very close to July 2016. Your goal is to find a version of the page that has the old parish table on it.

12. Once you find the date, click on it. It will show you an old version of the page. Check the table and make sure it's the old one. You will know this because this table will be much smaller than the table on the talk page.

13. Click on edit source at the top of the page and copy the code for the old parish table. NOTE: DO NOT CLICK ON THE SECTION EDIT SOURCE - IT WILL NOT GIVE YOU THE OLD CODE

14. Now click on the Page tab again and DO NOT SAVE THE PAGE (there will be a prompt that says “do you want to leave the page” Say yes!)

15. This will now show you the CURRENT Parish page.

16. Scroll down to the "Church Records" heading and click on the section, edit source.

17. Paste the code in the section and save the page. It should now have the OLD parish table on the page.

18. Now click on the Talk tab and go to the the Old Parish Table heading.

19. Click on edit source for the section and paste the old table in the section.

20. Save the page. Make sure both tables are different from each other on the talk page. This will ensure you have two different tables - the old one and the new one.

21. Go back to the task list for the county and do the next parish page.
