REGISTRATION IS CLOSED.

Our goal for the Spring Clean-a-Thon is to clear out as many database suggestions as possible. To make it fun we're having teams and competing to see who can clear out the most.

It will be going for 72 hours straight, April 21-23. We're including Monday so that those who are busy on the weekend can still participate.

To be eligible for t-shirt prize drawings you must register here.

Simply post an answer saying "Yes, I'd like to participate" along with what team you'd prefer, if any. If you're not sure about a team, say a few things about your location, genealogical interests, and/or what you like to work on at WikiTree and we'll find a good fit for you. (See current list of teams here.)

If you'd like to start a team see the steps here. This year every team captain and co-captain will get a t-shirt!

The registration deadline is midnight on Thursday, April 19.

Note: Please post as an answer not as a comment. Thanks!

Just a reminder, Nor'Easters Concentrates on New England and the Canadian Maritimes, but we aren't restricted to it. Look over the current teams but keep us in mind. ;) We only have 4 berths left.

For anyone using the spreadsheets with the live chat, this setup works well for me, give a whole window to work in, and keeps chat visible. Spreadsheet window to the right, working window to the left mostly overlapping.

Registration is now closed! Thanks to everyone who registered.

If you haven't registered, it's too late to be eligible to participate on a team and for prizes, but you are still welcome to participate in the Clean-a-Thon itself. :)
