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. _____ Matt~ WikiTree Mentor
I noticed you clicked on the volunteer button indicating that you would like to collaborate and add information. If thatÂ’s correct please leave a comment here on your profile and one of the Greeters will be happy to add you as a member of WikiTree.
I have really enjoyed collaborating with all the members on this site. Merging into a family line and finding 'cousins' is what makes this site so great, and so different from all the other genealogy sites on the internet.
Please note we are trying to build one Collaborative Tree which means one profile per person. It is important to ensure no duplicates are entered as you add any Profiles to WikiTree.
3. Our help pages, top right, have all sorts of useful information.
