New Member Making Numerous Undocumented Changes

Question

I spent several hours today fixing a lot of unsourced duplicates that a new member had created. Once I got home to check things after I got an email that a merge had been completed, it looks like everything I did was undone and children were moved around. Help please--it's very discouraging.

Hi Jayme,

I see Paula's got a handle on your post  (thanks Paula!) but in the future the starting point for any situation involving another member is here: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Problems_with_Members   You can go through the steps and see what action it leads you to.

Thanks!

10/02/2015 Update:

Today Chris announced some changes to the WikiTree's menus. As of today, we no longer have to remember or search for the web address: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Problems_with_Members.

The help drop-down-menu (located top of page, far right) now has a direct link named Problems w/ Members.

I am the Ranger on duty and I have looked at the profile you referenced. I see the unsourced changes that you have mentioned. I have left a note and will folow up. Thanks for your g2g question which brought this to my attention.

Hi Jayme,

Please file an MIR for the situation and we'll take it from there. See http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Problems_with_Members and http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Mentor_Intervention_Request
