Is there a way to find out and keep track of orphan/GEDCOM profiles I have worked on?

Question

Hi

I have been working on quite a few very distant relatives that are orphan, GEDCOM, or both and have not adopted them. I would like to be able to keep monitoring for awhile after I work on them. So, is there a way to keep track of all of them by a list or should I start keeping my own list as I do not like having to read through all my contributions to find them. Thank you for your help.

Answer 1

Two thoughts.

I tend to adopt any orphan profile I work on, at least for a while. Then I use the different ways of sorting the watch list (especially last edit date), to reduce the list back down again when it's getting unwieldy.

The second is you could use your contributions list and then all you'd need is to keep track of dates when you were working on some of these more distant profiles to be able to get back to them all easily?

Thanks

Thanks for replying.  I have made a word file that has a table of 3 columns-  Alphabet A-Z, place for profile name and id and a comment spot if I need to remember something.  

I also noticed if I go to distant generations I can see some of the names there.
