Congratulations, you've been a member for a month!
Beyond the Basics of WikiTree is a guide on some of our more advanced features such as Projects, Categories, Merging, Templates and Volunteer Opportunities!
We're very active on our social sites and we have an excellent blog where you'll find our monthly newsletter as well as tips, interviews with our members and guest posts from others in the genealogy community.
Try our Relationship Finder! It searches 20 generations. If you find a duplicate profile, the other managers are probably related. You can use this to find out how!
Free Space pages are wiki pages for supplementing your family history. They can be used to profile anything of significance such as a special pet, a meaningful event, a school you attended, a family heirloom .... They're "anything pages".
Hello, Thank you for joining WikiTree. As a WikiTree Mentor I am available to answer any questions or help solve any issues you may be having.How is your experience with Wikitree going?
Our G2G Forumis searchable or you can post a question there.
The Help Index is also an important place to find how to do most tasks.
Feel free to ask me via my profile page if you have any questions.
Im glad you found us. I just confirmed you as a member (once you sign the Honor Code, youll be a full member aka a Wiki Genealogist). An important aspect of WikiTree is providing sources for information (even if its just Aunt Louisa told me in 1984...) my profile page has a link to Sources Resources, where Ive tried to provide an overview of source information.
Give G2G or me a holler if you get stuck on anything, and thank you for joining our collaborative tree. Remember that our mission is to build a global tree with just one profile per person, so please look for duplicates before adding a profile.
I am trying to assist my sister in the development of her husbands family tree as she is unable due to her medical condition. I have already seen info that matches her data and it moves me forward to contiue developing this for her.

Just checking in with a few quick tips:
Free Space pages are wiki pages for supplementing your family history. They can be used to profile anything of significance such as a special pet, a meaningful event, a school you attended, a family heirloom .... They're "anything pages".
Not sure what to include in a profile? Check out our Biography Ideas and Styles and Standards help pages.
Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.
Do you have any questions I can help with?
