FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject FamilySearch Historical Records/Guidelines for Articles

Title
Include in the title:

Name of the locality, beginning with the smallest and ending with the largest locality. Country names should be listed, with the exception of the United States and Canada.

Dates for census records only

Record type and name of the denomination or specific religious organization

The phrase (FamilySearch Collections)

'FamilySearch Collections are currently found in the Record Search pilot site. That site will be added to the new version of FamilySearch.org which will be released in the near future.'

Template
Members of the User Guidance Unit will add the required Collection Identification number to the Record_Search_article template. The template brands the article as describing a collection from the FamilySearch website and will create a link to individual digital collections.

Images
The User Guidance unit will create sample images of records within galleries. Single images will appear at the top of the article. Multiple images should be placed by the Record Content section, to allow wiki users to compare images to the content list. Some images will have callouts or foreign language translations.
