We have a Smith Name Study to assist you with your general research and genetic genealogy: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Smith_Name_Study
There are links on the Smith Name Study page to our Smith One Name Study, Brick Walls, Pending Merges, Unsourced Profiles, Error Lists, Smith Researchers and WikiTree Genealogists, the northeastern US SmithConnections DNA Project and others. There are plenty of opportunities to add and improve Smith profiles. Thank you!
We've made a change in how the tutorials are sent to new members. Instead of weekly messages you can now work at your own pace.
How is it going so far? Have the How-Tos been helpful or left you with questions?

P.S. Sometimes links don't work in emails. You can always find a link that works in the public comments on your profile.
You're probably getting a good feel for the collaborative nature of WikiTree by now. We know that collaboration isn't always easy. So, we've put together a few pointers that can make working in this type of environment a little easier: How to be a Successful WikiTreer.

It's time for your next stop on the guided tour!
This week, we'd like to show you How to Join in the Community. There's no shortage of opportunities to get involved through social media, our forum, and projects.
Be sure to check out the One Name Studies Project to see if anyone has started a project for one of the surnames in your family. Don't see one? Follow the instructions for starting your own!
Please let me know if you have questions. :-)

As we've said, WikiTree is quite different from other genealogy sites. So, we've put together a guided tour. Your first stop is How to Start Climbing Our Tree. Next week, you'll get another message with your next stop on the guided tour.
You can also meet some of us in the G2G forum. Feel free to jump in, introduce yourself, and answer our Question Of The Week: Are you related to a Magna Carta Surety Baron?
If you have trouble with the links in this message, try clicking through from your profile page.
Tomorrow, you'll hear from a Mentor who will check in to see how you're doing and answer your questions.
The email we just sent has helpful links to get you started.
WikiTree is different from other genealogy websites because our goal is to create one big family tree with ONE PROFILE PER PERSON. This means we all work together on our shared ancestors.
When you confirm your email address, youll be given an opportunity to volunteer to help document our collective family history. Use the Tags and comments to tell us about your genealogical interests. It can be a name, like SMITH, or a place, like AUSTRALIA. Be sure to click the "Enter Tag(s) and Volunteer" button when you finish!
After you volunteer, one of us will be by to confirm your membership. Then you'll be able to add your family!
Hope to see you soon!
