Английская Википедия:GENUKI
Шаблон:Short descriptionGENUKI is a genealogy web portal, run as a charitable trust. It "provides a virtual reference library of genealogical information of particular relevance to the UK and Ireland".[1] It gives access to a large collection of information, with the emphasis on primary sources, or means to access them, rather than on existing genealogical research.
Name
The name derives from "GENealogy of the UK and Ireland", although its coverage is wider than this. From the GENUKI website: Шаблон:Blockquote
Structure
The website has a well defined structure at four levels.
- The first level is information that is common to all "the United Kingdom and Ireland".[2]
- The next level has information for each of England (see example)[3] Ireland, Scotland, Wales, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.
- The third level has information on each pre-1974 county of England and Wales, each of the pre-1975 counties of Scotland, each of the 32 counties of Ireland and each island of the Channel Islands (e.g. Cheshire,[4] County Kerry[5] and Guernsey).[6]
- The fourth level has information on each town or parish (e.g. Antrobus, Cheshire).[7]
The structure is shown diagrammatically in the "Contents and Site Map".[8]
Subject headings
At each level, some of the subject headings from the list prepared by the Family History Library in Salt Lake City are used. The full list is: Шаблон:Col-begin Шаблон:Col-break

Contents
In some instances GENUKI pages include actual information, but more often they provide links to sources of information, either as online links or by providing information about hard copy publications or repositories. For many locations, a description is quoted from an old (and therefore out-of-copyright) gazetteer. As GENUKI is maintained solely by volunteers, the level of detail varies in different parts of the site. Material on the GENUKI website is copyright, and also protected by UK database right, and it must only be used for personal research and not copied onto other websites.[9]
