BUT thats the thing it was the chosen subject wasnt changed, I continued on with what the previous admin did. If the posts were John q. Public married Joanna Kostachowsk in Smithville 1918 Made it Public, Johnq -m- Kostachowski, Joanna - 1918 smithville, KS and if its an Obit. OBIT: Public, John, or Biography. BIO: Public, John Q Cemetery CEM: Public, John q I have seen this done on many boards other the Rootsweb and it helps elimate unwanted looks and easier searching. It wasnt that anything was deleted. Unless it was in the post already. But you all helped. Thanks J.KRuger

The changes you made also made it impossible for someone to do a search of subject lines with the term "John q. Public." The new subject line as you changed it eliminates the find. I agree with Lynn. I would be very unhappy if you changed my subject lines for what appears to be no reason. Is the board in question a locality board? If it is, and it is the state of Kansas, or a county in Kansas, then the addition of the KS is also unnecessary. Now, if the subject line had said John m Joanna, that would be a different story.
