Wikitext Editing Instructions

Part A - Adding the Intro Template

2. Login to the FamilySearch wiki using your FamilySearch login name and password. Find the sign-in area in the top right-hand corner of the page.

3. Scroll to the heading Church Records.

4. Open the Church Records heading for editing by clicking on the pen in square on the right-hand side of the page, opposite the heading title.

7. While in wiki text, copy and paste the following template under the heading Church Records:

8. If there is any other text under the heading, be sure to place the intro template on a separate line before any additional text. 

Part B - Adding the subheadings

1. If any records are already added to the church section, determine which congregation to which the records belong.

2. Using size 5 heading, add the name of the congregation for a subheading, such as Baptist, Methodist or Society of Friends. If the record is multi-denominational or you cannot determine the congregation, add a heading called General. This heading should come before the other denonimations.

Make a size 5 heading by typing 5 = signs before and after the heading.
Example: =====General=====

b. Left click and drag your cursor across the text to highlight the information which needs moving.
c. Right click and select cut.
