 **See the 'Scriptures' link on the sidebar. In a hymn article, add a category for the scripture (write out the name of the book: i.e. Psalms 23 instead of Psalm 23, Doctrine and Covenants instead of D&C, etc.) and add the category you made to the Scriptures category (if it isn't already). Feel free to quote the scripture in the category for it.

+*Scriptures added to hymns
 *People to visit hymnals at [http://books.google.com/ Google Books] and put information about them on HymnWiki (compilation articles, song lists for those, lyrics, sheet music, etc.); there are tons of free public domain hymnbooks there.
 *Public domain, or original icon images for media links (PDF, Midi, LilyPond, etc.), templates, and such.
 *Full articles on LDS organizations that sometimes have music: [[Relief Society]], [[Primary]] (and its various stages, as there are some songs particular to certain stages), [[Young Women's]], [[Young Men's]], the various [[priesthood quorums]], [[mutual]]/[[MIA]], [[EFY]], and so forth.  Be sure to add them to the [[:category:Terms|terms]] category.
 *People to host [[HymnWiki:Contests|contests]], for hymn-writing and such.
 *We need people to watch Ebay for hymnals (lesser-known ones) that aren't listed on HymnWiki; these are nice because you can get names and dates (and even pictures) of them as evidence that they exist.
