Team LDS Project Clean-a-Thon Chat

Question

Hello Team!

Please use this G2G post to post what errors you are working on, any questions you have, requests for help, or whatever you would like to talk about during the Clean-a-Thon.

Our special error lists are located here, but feel free to work on other errors. 

There are only 361 errors on LDS Project profiles, let's get that down to zero!

Comments

There are a lot of profiles with marriages on the same day. I looked a a couple and they are multiple marriages during time period that LDS approved of polygamy. Is there some way to clear this error without deleting the multiple marriages (since these probably in fact happened), or should we just add a note stating that the profile is not in error?

Similar question regarding unique name spellings. If we find that the spelling is correct according to sources, how can we clear the error?

For now I will work on error 571 - FindAGrave links without grave ID.

Thanks.

For those errors make sure there are sources to back up the name or the marriage dates, and then mark it a "false error". Those are the two that I mark false most often.

If you are having trouble finding a source post in here and I'll try to help you find one :)

Agreed, as sometimes they place family within same tombs or grave space lots, but with 1 stone for all

OK - thanks.

Answer 1

I'll be able to start Saturday pm, was going to work on my own errors, but only a few of them would be on the LDS Project list if that is pioneers.

Working on your own errors is fine! I'll be working off of my own error list too.

Good job Linda! This time we don't have to list the individual errors that we correct in the thread, they are automatically checked when you update the status on the error page. I was just listing which error categories I had finished.

You can see which corrections count toward your total here: http://wikitree.sdms.si/function/WTStatusReview/Status.htm?TimeRange=4&WikiTreeID=Cox-14880

OK - so in addition to amending the profiles, we need to update the status on the error page? Or will it be automatically updated once they run the program?

Sorry to be such a dunce.

Linda Green

I think I got it. I have been updating the status now as I go.

Thanks.

---

Far as I can tell - Error 571- Link without grave ID for category LDS is DONE

---

Awesome Linda!

---

Thanks. I'll try to work on LDS category error 572 - linked grave not matching profile & 574 - imprecise birth date.

---

OK - it's midnight - have to quit, but with the help of others I believe the following are done:

LDS Error 572

LDS Error 574

LDS Error 577

LDS Error 578

LDS Error 579

LDS Error 585

Good job everyone!
