Task List
Task List

PART 1: Sign up on Task List
1. Go to the Task List and put your name in the "Name" column for the respective parishes you'd like to work on.

2. Go to the England, Essex Non-conformist Records collection.

3. Click "Any" (as shown in the image below). In the box that pops up, enter the name of your parish from "Parish" column of the Task List into the "Any place" field, then click "Search".

4. If there are no results for your parish, mark "No" in the "Parish in the collection?" on the Task List, and continue on to the next parish in the Task List.

5. If there are results for your parish, mark "Yes" in the "Parish in the collection?" on the Task List, and continue on to PART 2 of the instructions.

PART 2: Add collection to Parish Page
6. Click on the link for your parish in the "Parish" column in the Task List. This will take you to the Wiki parish page for that parish.

7. Locate the "Church Records" heading on the page, and click "Edit source" next to that heading.

8. While editing the "Church Records" heading, look near the bottom to see if there is a "Non-conformist" subheading (may look something like the image below).
 * Note 1. If: the heading is titled "Non-Conformist Churches" or "Non-Conformist Records" or a variation thereof, it's ok. As long as there is a Non-conformist specific sub-heading. You don't need to worry about changing it.
 * Note 2. If: a parish doesn't have a Non-conformist heading, but there is a section called "Non-conformist" that is just bolded text. If that is the case, make it a heading as per the instructions in Note 3. 
 * Note 3. If: there is no Non-conformist subheading, at the very bottom of the "Church Records" section add a subheading one level lower than the Church Records heading, titled "Non-Conformist Records". For example, if the Church Records heading is a level 3 header (if it has three equal signs ( = ) on either side), then make the Non-Conformist header a level 4 header, with 4 equal signs on either side, etc. See example below)

9. Immediately underneath the "Non-Conformist" subheading (above any other content for that subheading), copy and paste the following code:  *1613-1971 at FamilySearch - How to Use this Collection; index (dates may vary by parish)  10. In the Summary box, type "Added non-conformist collection". Then Save the page.
