Consistency Checker

Question

So, I've been going through my watchlist and adding birth year guesses for profiles without any dates (based on Mom/Dad, Spouse, Kids, etc.).  I've been careful but you know me ... I'm sure I've biffed one or two.  Is there a consistency checker that runs on the Wiki data?  If not, maybe that should be something to add to the list ... Bob

Answer 1

There isn't anything like this that runs on WikiTree right now.

However, if you want to check your own data, there are ways of doing that. You can export your GEDCOM and upload it into a desktop genealogy program, many of which have tools that check for these kinds of mistakes. Gramps, for example, is free, and it has a tool called Verify the Data, which can check for all kinds of things like age at death, age for each gender at marriage, minimum and maximum age for each gender to have a child, etc. You can find your errors there and then fix them on WikiTree.
