Membership Database/Editing

The Membership Database is edited by Adam Grose. Other people that have done this task: Brett Wuth, BobCosta.

He uses
 * the changes that members make to their personnel record sheets at regular meetings
 * event/course sign-in sheets which are passed to him
 * individual changes which are e-mailed to him.

Process
Edit the membership records on the secure part of the wiki.
 * existing membership records
 * See formatting instructions for the kinds of changes to make.
 * new members or applicants should be added in a similar fashion, namely
 * create a new page called " ", using the person's name instead of .  Note that the first part of the name   is plural (with an 's'), because we want it to be stored on the part of the wiki that only members can view.
 * Copy the contents from an existing member and edit it to match the new member
 * Use the "edit" view of the existing member, so you copy everything including the.
 * Further, when you get a new membership record form, I recommend that you keep the original in the binder (filed by name), so if for whatever reason I don't get to process the membership database, the new member can continue to update their original form as if it was a printed sheet.


 * Activities lists the activities we have had


 * update membership statuses
 * Any changes (e.g. an applicant becoming an associate member) should be added, not deleting the old membership information. This is a requirement of the Alberta Society Act.
 * check list of newly approved members


 * review any e-mailed updates (done to 23:47, 28 February 2011 (UTC))
 * Review Brett's copy of the call-out list
 * Review the call-out list in the membership binder
 * Review the personnel records in the membership binder

Brett Wuth has abandoned development of a java application for structured editing of the database using a graphical user interface (MembershipDatabaseEditorTask).
