Excellent place to be during a Source-a-Thon. You only need to list the profiles you've improved, and just list all those sources on that profile.

See the Source-a-Thon tutorial for detailed steps: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Source-a-Thon_Tutorial

I'm not finding this is working out easily. I have no idea if this 'answer' is what I need to create to be added to the list. I've made 1 source addition to Ladouceur-527 but it it isn't showing up. I'm finding the instructions aren't very intuitive.

I kept at it, and it's now fixed. I needed to move <references /> to the end, after the citation.
