The Profile Improvement Project (PIP) is performing a check-in with project members. Please review the following and let us know if you are content where we have placed you or would like to be more involved.
The Project operates in a team structure. There are currently three participant PIP Teams -- The Maintenance Category Team, the Unknowns Team, and the Biography Team. There is also the Voyage Team which guides new Voyagers. See the Profile Improvement Project Teams for a brief outline of each team.
You're currently identified as a member of the Biography Team Level 2. Biography Team Level 1 works on profiles from their watchlist and other profiles that interest them. Biography Team Level 2 works on orphaned profiles from a provided list. Biography Team Level 3 works on notable profiles from the Project’s Maintenance Categories. Are you happy with the Team you are on? If you are interested in working with a different Team, please let us know.
If you have not already done so, we invite you to join the email GoogleGroup and text chat Discord channel for our project. (You will need your Wiki ID for both). Neither is required; we also use the Profile_Improvement tag in G2G for Project announcements.
We thank you for all you do to help the Profile Improvement Project meet its goals. We would like to hear about the successes you’ve had and would also appreciate any feedback you have to help improve the Project. Please share your thoughts in a reply to this comment or via private message to one of us.

I had been working on several project in early April - the Caudills included - which I set aside for the Source-a-Thon and haven't had a chance to get back to yet.
Cheers, Liz
I just checked with Relationship Finder and she's your 6th-great-grand. Send me a trusted list request & I can add you as a manager. Let me know if you want me to remove the bulk of the profile text (what isn't already collected on the Space page, I can put there).
Cheers, Liz
As you have been a member of WikiTree for a while now, I thought I would check in to see how you are getting on with the site.
Has the New Member How-To been helpful, or left you with any questions? Let me know if you need any tips to help you get more of your family members added. Thanks for sharing some lovely family photos!

PS Thanks for your contributions so far! Please do return to the profiles you create to add more biographical details and sources -- this is the best way to create an interesting, accurate, and well-rounded story of your family. The easiest way to find info and sources is to use the handy RootsSearch link on the right side of any profile. Use your WikiTree login to access over 20 websites. Once you find a correct source, copy and paste the citation info and add it to the profile. Learn more about sources here. You may be interested in checking out the resources of the United States project. This project includes many sub-projects that may be of interest to you or you can find other projects that suit other areas of your research.

The table of contents is automatically generated when there are subheadings. To eliminate the table you would have to eliminate the subheadings.
Here is a help page with some info on formatting biographies: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Biographies#Required:_Biography_and_Sources
Hope that helps. If you have further questions on this, include a link to a profile as an example. Drop me a note anytime!
Peggy
It has info on what can be deleted and what should be kept. The most important idea is that info that may be useful to other researches should be retained in the Research Notes section. Other info, repetitive text and "gedcom junk" can be deleted.

Those footnoted citations are created by using the inline citation option. To create one, you type a fact, click the C in the toolbar and then paste or type the citation between the ref tags. The citation will then appear following the references tag in the sources section.
To find one to correct a typo, look for the citation after the fact it references in the biography.
You will often find answers to issues in the G2G forum but you should also try the help pages. Here's the help page for sources: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources
A good rule of thumb is to search for an answer for a few minutes. If you don't find it in that time, reach out for help. You can ask me or another greeter or post a question to the G2G forum. You will always find someone happy to help.
Let me know how you do with this or if you have any other questions.
Peggy
Thanks self-certifying for the Pre-1700 badge! Collaboration with Pre-1700 Project members is essential for those wishing to edit Pre-1700 profiles. Collaboration is essential because those ancestors are usually shared by many descendants.
It looks like theUnited States Project would be a good fit based on your branch of WikiTree. Review the project page to learn about resources and guidelines as well as how to collaborate with the project members.
Do you have any questions? Let me know by using the "reply" link under my comments or by clicking my name to visit my profile. From there you can leave a comment or send a private message. . I'm happy to help! :-)

At WikiTree, we aim to protect the privacy of all living individuals for their protection and in line with data protection legislation.
WikiTree has excellent privacy controls, but that won’t protect you and your family if you publish your personal information, or the information of your living family members, in your biography, Communications section, or on the profiles of others.
Since WikiTree is a public website, I suggest you remove references to dates, locations or living individuals from your biography,
For further information, see Privacy and Data Protection.
Many thanks

I noticed what appears to be your phone number showing as part of your name. That sometimes happens if a mobile device is used to create the profile.
I recommend that you remove the number for your privacy. To do that, go to your profile and click the Edit tab. The phone number is in the Prefix field. After you remove it, click the Save Changes link.
Take care
Karen
I am very pleased to welcome you to the WikiTree family, your contributions will go a long way to joining the world together.
It is best to start with the New Member How-To pages, they will save you a lot of time and frustration.
I am here to answer any question you have, no matter how trivial you may think it is. There is no such thing as a silly question. Please add as much information as you can, it all helps to turn a “name” back into a person. I hope you enjoy the site as much as I do.
Happy tree climbing

You are very welcome, very few of us are professional genealogists, so it is mainly hobby genealogists. If you look at the top of your profile page, you will see 2 boxes, type in the name of the person you are interested in and you will be taken to the page where profiles for the name you are looking for, or names similar, and you click on the name, some of them can have quite a lot of names on them, so if you scroll down the page you will see some more boxes to add additional information to narrow down the search.
As an example if you were to click on Henry Tudor which is Henry VIII, you will see his wives and children with clickable links to their profiles, to see your connection to him or any other people, you will need to add your ancestors names, then you will see at the bottom of the page, selected people you have a genealogical connection to, and how you are connected to them, and if you have a relationship to them, you will find the links to them under the "Mosier-771" drop down menu.
I hope this helps, any problems please let me know
Take care
Karen

In a case like this, I would say post on her profile page that you are a descendant and have some missing information to add to her profile and those of her children, that way all the profile managers will be notified.
With profiles that are from that era, they are all "open" profiles you can tell these by the open padlock in the top right-hand corner of the profile page, so you can add the information you have without being added to a trusted list, we do ask that you are able to add a valid source to the facts that you are adding
I hope this helps, any problems, please let me know
Take care
Karen 🤗
