I goofed on adding 2 pre-1700 profiles and could not delete it. I have to add at least 12 characters.

I was using FAMILYSEARCH fully aware of pre-1700 rules. But I accidentally added Pedro Onate (Onate-19) and his wife, Maria Josefa Autor (Autor-1) as parents of Josep Onate (Onate-18), I apologize for this mess I created.  I know I am not authorized to add or create new pre-1700 profiles because I do not have the tools and the time to do research for supporting documents.  I  was trying to help my friend, Andres David Onate (Onate-12).  I will have to see him and help him complete his incomplete profile.

I'm confused. Your profile shows that you have pre-1700 certification....

Ah, I get it now. You created a profile with only a FamilySearch family tree profile as a source, and you were hoping to get rid of the profile you created.

We don't delete profiles here. surprise

Fortunately, there are some OK sources cited on that profile you cited. You should be able to visit the FamilySearch profile that you added as a source, access the good sources that are cited in that profile, and add those good sources to the pre-1700 profile(s) that you created.

You may even find it easier to fix your error than to beg forgiveness for it. And I suggest that you quit creating profiles (for any time period) that only cite user-contributed family trees, so this will never happen again.
