Are you a FS employee?
Some of your recent edits about image visibility of historical record collections seem to suggest you are a FS employee. If this is the case, it would be helpful for the community if you stated that on your user page. Some of these edits were discussed in a recent GetSatisfaction forum thread, and there was confusion about whether these edits were being made by an official FS employee. If this is not the case, I apologise for bothering you and thank you for improving the wiki. --Av85647 (talk) 16:07, 6 January 2020 (MST)

Response to Av85647
No, I am not an FS employee. I'm fulltime missionary serving in User Guidance.

Firstly, thank you for your service as a volunteer for FamilySearch. If you are taking instructions from/doing official work for FamilySearch/The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, it would be useful if this was noted. Even if you're not a paid employee, it's useful for the community to know when an edit is being made by an ordinary user, and when the edit is by or on the behalf of FamilySearch. --Av85647 (talk) 14:03, 8 January 2020 (MST)

Response to your message
Hi Sis Chin I appreciate your message to me. I think you were responding to my changing the category for the image: File:England, Durham - Calendar of Marriage Bonds and Allegations DGS 004054453 img 9.jpg

If this is the right file, let me explain why I did what I did. The category was a red category which meant it did not exists. So, I took a look to see if there was a category that was close to what you wanted. The Category that was already created was the

Category: England Vital Files

Although they may close to the same, my task is to try to use categories that already exists and not create new category for each individual variance.

If you look, there are quite a few categories already there for England that have marriage images, birth images and so on. It is hard when all of images are not in the same space. I see you made your own category, which is great. I just wanted you to understand why I changed it in the first place, so most of the images are in the same space.

Thank you for your work. Denise Poulsen, Wiki Missionary
