I would like advice or may need help creating a new category for the profile of Doris Abbelitzen.

Abbelitzen-1 is a profile in this category: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Schindler-204

I would like this category to be a subcategory of Category:German Confederation  https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:German_Confederation%2C_Emigrants

PM: Schindler-204

Hi Jo,

Can you clarify this request a bit?

Category:Schindler-204 is a Personal Category. Personal Categories should not be nested under the general-use category structures.

If you are trying to add Abbelitzen-1 to Category: German Confederation, Emigrants, then on that profile, add this at the very top of the biography:

[[Category: German Confederation, Emigrants]]

Yes, categorizing the free-space page to that category is fine. Just make sure you link from the free-space page to the category in some way (or highlight it on the page) so there is a connection from one to the other.
Sad to say I did try to do that but alas my skills were woefully inadequate.  Can you assist me?
Done :)

I added the category tag to your space page, so your page now shows here:

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:German_Confederation%2C_Emigrants

On your page, you link back to your personal category where you are storing the profiles, so you should be all good now!
Mike, I'm impressed with the sheer number of profiles! and some very nice graphics.
Why Thank you, but keep checking back.  Every time I get a new months birthday list I recehck every profile and try to add a source or a picture or improve the profile.  So if they have a birthday I revisit every single profile at least once every year.

And a compliment from you means a lot.
Mike, again - that is your Personal Category. It has your WikiTree ID in it.

Mike, I like your work.

I should have a birthday list as well to review Wikitree profiles.

Has this query been answered? Without knowing specifically where Doris migrated to another category that can be added is https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Kingdom_of_Hanover%2C_Emigrants_to_United_States
I thought everyone got a monthly report on all of their profiles.  maybe you turned your report off.  I get mine automatically every wednesday with birthdays for that week.
