The benefits? You can win one of over $3,000 in door prizes, but the best part is that we all work together here and try to provide sources on those unsourced profiles.
Hope you join us. Visit Source-a-Thon to get your Source-a-Thon number & badge. You are invited also to join Team Missouri, which includes Missouri, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Kentucky, Iowa, Arkansas, Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska.
Every little bit helps. Thanks so much.

Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, there are a few more features you may find useful.
Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards, including some tips on writing biographies.
If you need to describe an event, an heirloom or a location relevant to your research, you may like to learn about Free Space Profiles.
Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask via my profile page.

You are now a confirmed member of WikiTree! Thank you for volunteering.

Have fun and ask for help if you need it! WikiTree members are always eager to offer guidance to a fellow genealogist.
If you need additional help, our Mentors Project is a friendly bunch of volunteers who will be glad to assist you with WikiTree-specific problems.
Happy Hunting,

I noticed you uploaded a GEDCOM. That's great. Our GEDCOM process is a bit different than what might be used to on other sites. We have some great help pages to make your experience go more smoothly:
If you have any questions about your GEDCOM or our process, you can contact our GEDCOM Manager for assistance.
Thanks!

Welcome to WikiTree! The initial email from us has helpful links that will get you started on WikiTree, which is not like any genealogy site youve ever used.
WikiTree is different because our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we all work together as a BIG collaborative team!
What brings you to WikiTree? Do you have research youd like to share? Are you interested in how your family fits into the big tree? When you confirm your email address, youll have an opportunity to volunteer and tell us about your genealogical interests.
Once you volunteer, one of our Greeters will be happy to confirm your membership, and youll be on your way!
Welcome to the family! Were really glad youre here.
