So by all means dive in and update the Quebec Church Records page you mentioned was way outdated. The way the wiki is supposed to work is that when someone comes across information in it that is stale, outdated, or otherwise wrong, to just go in and correct it. If you screw something up in the process, you can revert the edit and start again if necessary. Salt Lake knows that all the outlines are outdated, yes, they said that many have not been updated for years. Knowing that, and knowing that we need the latest information available to find ancestors and the records that were left about them, they set up the wiki. It's for everyone, not just those at the library who run it. They provide the site, run the hardware and some moderation activity, but it's up to us to update it. If anyone wants to update a page about a locality and make it a group effort, have at it. There has already been a successful effort on the National Library of Wales page where they have listed all the microfilm numbers on a subpage, so you can find it no matter where it was in the catalog as far as its listing, some were listed under one heading, while others were in other headings.
