G2G: Help with Gates Surname DNA Project free space profile setup [closed]

Question

I have created: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Gates_Surname_DNA_Project -- and I wish to tag it appropriately, to attract other members who want to discuss this topic.

Ideally I would like to advocate a particular method for maintaining a higher level of validity than mere speculation, and apply the biological arbitrariness of DNA.  This method extends beyond autosomal matching, with segment attribution or not, using Y-DNA testing.  It would also be used to validate haplogroups, and private variant mutations.

Any help is welcome.

I ended up deleting the profile, unhappy with its pre-supplied contents.

Hi Barry, when I click on the link, I get an error message that the page is not found...

I suggest you review this page that discusses DNA group projects at Wikitree.  You can also reach out to Mags Gaulden (project leader) with questions.

You might want to look at the Estes page for ideas.

I set up an Athey Y-DNA Surname Project page awhile back.  You can view it here for an example of a basic page.

Thanks again Darlene.

Mags's page is helpful.  And roughly where I'm at, but wanting to do it a bit further, and also help leverage, and ease the transition, from autosomal DNA.

Thanks Darlene.  I was one step away from finding Space:DNA_Groups_Group again, but I could not close the last mile of the gap.  :)
