We are in the midst of our most ambitious community event ever: The WikiTree Challenge.
Each week in 2021, a team of WikiTreers is collaborating on the tree of a special genealogy guest star. Our challenge is to make their genealogy more accurate and complete than it is anywhere else. Here are all the details: Help:WikiTree_Challenge.
Can you participate in any of these weeks?
- Week 44: Nov 3 - Nov 10 Claire Brisson-Banks of Timeless Genealogies
- Week 45: Nov 10 - Nov 17 Maureen Taylor The Photo Detective
- Week 46: Nov 17 - Nov 24 Michael Lacopo of Roots4U
- Week 47: Nov 24 - Dec 1 Rest Week (Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate it)
To register, simply post an answer below (not a comment) and say something like "I want to participate in weeks 45 and 46."
Remember that you don't need to be skilled in the records for those ancestor locations. Things you can do to help:
- Write biographies for others
- Work with the Category project for needed categories
- Add relevant resource links for others to use (to blogs, etc.)
- Check the G2G post occasionally and notify the captain of questions
- Keep an eye on Discord in case others need help
- Upload pictures that were approved by the guest to that weeks Space page
- Search a paid site you belong to for obituaries and articles
