State Blitz
I added an announcement about the state blitz to next week's Community Meeting Agenda. I told folks to contact YOU if they'd like to help, since they can't access the task chart without permission. Can we rename Google Docs "Google Blocs?" since it blocks community participation :) Murphynw 17:27, 6 April 2012 (UTC)


 * HA! I showed you Nathan, I made the Google Doc open to the public. All they need is the link and they can access it immediately without "permission" being granted. Yeah, we should have done that before, but we are slow learners...but Google Blocs is pretty funny....BatsonDL

Please vote on search result title link color
Some users have reported that the red color of the article title links in search results are confusing because in a Mediawiki site, a red link means a link to a page that has no content. There is a poll on the forums as to whether to make the links blue instead, which would also conform to what Google and Bing do. Please read the thread/explanation and vote.

Headings on County Pages for Utah
Hi BatsonDL,

We appreciate the discussions and decisions made by a community of experts and interested parties regarding headings on the county pages especially for New York and Illinois, We want to adopt many of those changes and adapt some specifically for Utah. Will you please review the page for FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject Utah County Headings county headings in Utah and make comments on its discussion page?

Some volunteers for WikiProject Utah have already begun adapting the county pages. Your great suggestions will be implemented later, and we need to move now to prepare for a big push in January 2012.

Making your comments on the discussion page will allow for transparency, progress and improvement.

Thank you Wilma Adkins, WikiProject Utah manager; Marilyn Markham and Patsy Hendrickson, content specialists; and Dawne Hole and (Joy) Wyzer17, communications and volunteers liaisons.
