Thank you so much to everyone who participated in August's Sourcerers Challenge. The August Top Sourcerer was Star Kline with <drum roll> 332 profiles improved. Great work, Star! 

The current All Time Top Sourcerer is Karen Tobo.

To see the rest of the results, check out the Sourcerers Challenge page.

Onto September's challenge:
Sourcerer Badge
We want to give our members some incentive, even more than the fact that we're making our tree that much better and reliable, and we'd like to encourage you all to add good sources to profiles. Good can be debatable, it's true, but at this point we're thinking anything other than referencing just another tree is good, so census data, BMD records/index references, family bible references, military documents, land documents, wills, etc. all help us with having a better sourced tree.

Each month we'll post in G2G to start up the month's challenge. You come and post the profile you've added source(s) to (at least the profile number/name, if not a link to it) as well as what sources you added and at the end of the month, we'll tally for a winner. You only need to answer the post once, and just edit your post to add your new profiles. To continue to post once your answer reaches it's max, just comment on your own post. See last month's challenge for examples.

* All profiles improved must come from the Unsourced categories <http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Unsourced_Profilesor be already present on WikiTree and unsourced-you can't create new profiles and add sources just to up your tally. The hope and goal is to improve the numbers already on WikiTree that need sources. Adding sources will help merges happen, too, which will improve our tree. Showing folks what sources you're using helps newer researchers see just what's available out there for us to access.

* The tally is of profiles improved, not sources added.

* If you attempt to add sources to a profile and just cannot find any, please add a note under a section like === Research Notes === giving where you tried to find records and you can sign it with the four tildes (~~~~) so the date is applied as well. Something like "Looked for John in the US Census records for 1900-1940 and couldn't find him on FamilySearch or Ancestry" would be fine. Or, "Searched google for an obituary and didn't find one." That way the next researcher knows where to start.

* If the only source on a profile is "Ancestry tree" or "Geni.com" it can count as unsourced, and you can add better sources to it to count in your tally.

We are now actively in our September Challenge, which will run through September 30th.  Ask any questions here in the thread, otherwise, GO!

Jillaine,

When there is have a picture of a gravestone this seem to be in the category of a good reliable source. I nearly always add a FaG source if I find one, regardless of whether it has a picture or not. But at the same time I almost always have other sources added right on it's heals (generally from FamilySearch, usually  census records with occasional birth or marriage records.) It is just another arrow in the source quiver for me, good with picture, certainly less reliable when used for relationships and unsourced narrative.

My experience has been the reliability of FaG data, even when unsourced, is much better than the unsourced family trees, which often are copies of copies of copies.... FaG tends to not suffer from copy degradation you see in these.

Adding qualifying text on the source to indicate whether a picture is present would probably be an upgrade to the way I source, but I always include the link (It tend to source in an Evidence Explained style, but at the same time I use source info suggested on the Family Search pages because it is so darned easy, complete, and comes with a link), so you can easily determine what was derived from that source with one click.

The majority of people on WT (not the ones on the discussion forms like us) still do not source. I'd be happy with an FaG source from them instead of an "Entered by" or unsourced gedcom.

On the other hand you simply said "over-reliance" so maybe we are on the same page. ;-)
Marty, I think we're on the same page. Re: FaG, if there's a gravestone, I'd rather the reference be to the gravestone, and FaG is the place where the photo of the gravestone is published.

I'm glad you've had good experience with profiles there; in my experience, they are almost all unsourced.

What I'm trying to encourage here is for people to understand the distinction between information on the photograph of the gravestone and the user-entered additional information that may or may not be sourced.

The other thing it's important for us to understand even about the gravestones is when were they placed? Were they made/placed at the time of the person's burial? If not, how much later? I've seen people argue vociferously about "it must be true" based on information carved into a memorial stone that was placed 200 years after the person's death.

It wasn't true.

But I think I've digressed from the original purpose of this thread. My apologies, Abby.
Jillaine,

Interesting thoughts. I certainly do encounter gravestones that have birth dates that do not match other sources with some frequency. It has to be assumed the date of birth on a gravestone is less reliable than a birth record given the data is not concurrent with the event of a death.

On a more personal note my stepdad has gravestones in two different cemeteries. The first is undated next to his first wife who passed at a rather early age, as they both bought plots together at the time. I was at his internment.

I also was taking pictures in a rural church cemetery a few years ago where some of the mid to late 19th century headstones had clearly been replaced as they had decayed. These also should be treated as a bit less reliable than the original. So many shades of gray in reliability.  

In regards to squabbling, my simply answer is to not confuse evidence with proof.

Also, sorry for the digression. By the way profiles, I happen to be sourcing this month do not even have FaG sources.
Do we remove the {{Unsourced}} notation in the profile?
Yes, please!
If you improve a Profile that has a Profile Manager, even though it is unsourced, should you PM that Manager and let them know what you have done? (in case they think that WikiTree is populated by poltergeists! LOL)
Hi Ros,

It's always nice to let Profile Managers know what you're doing-often they'll jump in and lend a hand, but you don't have to. They can look through the Changes tab on the profile and see who added what. Then, they can come thank you for helping them out a bit :-)

Thanks for participating and making WikiTree better!

Abby
As we're going through some of these, if related profiles aren't sourced, I assume we should add the unsourced category?
Bobbie, I have just been finding sources for the related profiles as well.  Mags
I am finding that FAG, with or without an image, or a book listing a reading of a cemetery, is often the ONLY source for an infant's (or child under 10) death in areas where no d. c. was yet required.

Good job, Bob!
Should the names be links to profiles?
They don't have to be, as long as the profile id is there, which it is.
Mags,

Links take up characters, which are limited in the G2G box.

Thank you BWJ. I took a look, wondering what GaHetNa was, I  clicked on a link and got this

De website die u probeert te bezoeken is door een technische storing momenteel niet beschikbaar.  ....

Scratched my head a little and then looked farther down the page where it said.

The website you were trying to visit is currently not available due to a technical malfunction.  ....

Guess I need to look at the bigger picture :)

Thank you
Indeed, the site of the Dutch national archives (NA) was very slow tonight. I think it must be all the visitors using links from WT ;)

I am a light weight compared to the rest of these fine Sourcerers.  I will say that doing this exercise has made me look closely at the way I edit GEDCOM Gobildy Gook!  I have honed my skills down to a much more humanitarian (rather than utilitarian) way of cutting it up and presenting it.
Don't say that, Mags!  The work you are doing to clean up the profiles, merge duplicates, and add new profiles makes our common tree better with every new and improved profile.  Though I've initiated several merges and cleaned up profiles, I have not taken the time to create new profiles when I've found parents, spouses, or children in the sources.  I hope that the profile managers (if there is one) will take the time to look at the sources and do that.  I should follow your good example.
Light weight?? Yeah! I know like me you've got a lot of irons in the fires here, and can't spend all your time sourcing. Thank you for all you do.

We miss you in the October Sourcerers Challenge, Mags.  Come join the fun!

I wanted to add this to my sources but can't find an edit connection. That never happened before, but it seems to have disappeared from the other lists too. Sorry I don't know how to fix it but maybe someone will be able to do it.
Thanks to whoever restored the edit option, I have corrected my list now.
Why doesn't the link for Lydia Hicks work? I have copied and pasted it twice and it is definitely right but it won't connect and says the page doesn't exist.
Works now, and I don't know why it didn't work before. But I edited it (copy/paste) and it's fixed.

Thank you for your efforts to make the wikitree better and better.
Thank you Anne, I added Harry Skipp's wife this evening we knew her as Anne but her name was really Catherine so she took some finding - no time for more sources now, but I'll get back to it.

Allison, thank you for adding sources. Leaving a note when you can't find anything is an excellent thing to do.

Thanks Karen. I was curious - "Hofmeister -German: occupational name for the chamberlain in a noble household or an official with similar functions in a religious house, from Middle High German hof 'court', 'household' (originally 'settlement', 'manor farm') + meister 'master'." <Ancestry>

Maybe someone already caught this, but the post says:

by Ron Jarrell G2G3 (3.2k points)
Great job, Ron!  I was happy when I added 9 sources to one profile last month, but you added 19 sources to this profile!!  And you added the category for the cemetery (as any good Cemeterist would do) and recognized him as a WWI veteran.  This is a wonderful example for the rest of us.
Nice profile Ron, Thank you.

We miss you in the October Sourcerers Challenge, Ron. Come join the fun!  I tried my best to top your record for number of sources for one person, but just couldn't do it.

Hi there,

What do I do when I have done all I can and can find no source at all (even in Ancestry!!!!) I have just spent two hours looking for two people in Devon England to absolutely no avail  and it would be an awful waste of somebody else's time to do it all again. Could there be a category "checked <<date>> by <<wiki-ID>> no source found", please.

Equally, if someone were to find the source, I'd love to know it so I could use it in the future.

by Steve Bartlett G2G6 Mach 7 (77.2k points)
Hi Steve,

If you post the names of the two people you tried to source, then perhaps somebody will take on the challenge.

John

You are right, Steve - it would be a waste of someone's time to repeat the searches you have already done.  I suggest you place a note in the profile so others who later try to research these people will benefit from the effort you have already put into this.  To quote what Abby said at the beginning of this challenge:

* If you attempt to add sources to a profile and just cannot find any, please add a note under a section like === Research Notes === giving where you tried to find records and you can sign it with the four tildes (~~~~) so the date is applied as well. Something like "Looked for John in the US Census records for 1900-1940 and couldn't find him on FamilySearch or Ancestry" would be fine. Or, "Searched google for an obituary and didn't find one." That way the next researcher knows where to start.

I'd like to echo John's comment, too.  If you post the names of the people you researched, maybe someone else will know of a source.  I know I have ancestors from that area of England, so I'd love to learn of sources that I haven't yet explored.

Thanks Steve for asking the question. A model for me to follow.  I am new to all this and was feeling discouraged by the demands of the task and level of knowledge of some members. This was until I read and identified with your message and the usefulness to me of the responses. I often know what I want to say ab my resource info or lack of, but how to record where I am stuck and what is useful to followers plus how to be succinct is often my question, particularly when  my research has been unsuccessful. .So much was answered for me. Different context for research to what I am used to!!  Slowly learning to ask or respond as a member of the community.
Steve, thank you so much for spending the time to find sources. I've been at this a long time and sometime there just isn't anything to find. Leaving a note that you looked helps a lot. The next person won't have to look in those places.

PC, keep plugging away, don't get discouraged. Ancestors go on forever and we can only do so much. One of the lovely things about the internet is the amount of new information being posted all the time, so the ancestor who's a dead end now, may not be in a couple of years.

John A Askin 1891 Census

by Greg Slade G2G6 Pilot (669k points)
Thank you Greg, I can tell by looking at your contributions, that despite the small size of this list, you are diligently making profiles better.

We miss you in the October Sourcerers Challenge, Greg. Come join the fun!

Sorry, I've been particularly busy In Real Life.

Besides which, all the low-hanging fruit is starting to get picked out, and it's getting harder to source people in the sources I'm most familiar with (the BC Archives and the Canada Census).

Greg
