This is most likely a result of a profile manager closing their account and this profile, even though older than 100 years old, has the privacy set to yellow.

Send a message to info@wikitree.com and someone will most likely quickly resolve this problem for you.

Hi James,

I've opened it up for you, so you should be okay to adopt it now. If you come across any other profiles without managers that you would like to adopt, the best thing to do is to contact WikiTree's info mailbox to ask to be added to the trusted list.
