Hi there. Hope you're all well.
I have a family tree given to me by a distant cousin that supposedly connects us through his great-grandfather. I would like to import at least enough of his tree to form that connection.
I am well aware that, ordinarily, WikiTree prefers primary sources for research. My problem is, if I think I'm going to be using a rainy day for my side of the research, I have a bad feeling I'm going to be simply playing with lions trying to redo research on his immediate family, who have a relatively common surname.
Thankfully, I'm guessing since my relative presumably knows the details for his immediate family, there shouldn't be a real problem using his family tree as a source, at least temporarily until someone who has more patience or insight can replace them with primary sources.
Unfortunately I am no longer in contact with him so have no immediate way of inviting him on here.
In that case, assuming he is still alive, how do I cite the "Who", without giving his name, given how WikiTree protects information for living individuals? Is there some template or macro that I can use that allows WikiTree to view his privacy settings and determine what name to use for him based on that? Or should I just link to the profile and leave the link text as the wiki ID?
Cheers.
