 * 3) After you complete replacing all the tokens, go through all the text adding and adjusting so it all makes sense.
 * 4) Anywhere you see "....." some data should be supplied or the line should be removed.
 * 5) Remove all the Optional Categories at the bottom of the page that do not apply.
 * 6) Create an empty page on FortWiki by typing the full name of the fort like "Fort McHenry" into the search box and click on search.
 * 7) Click on the red page name on the search page and an empty page will appear.
 * 8) Paste the corrected text into the empty page, click on the "Preview" button and check the resulting page.
