Hi there! I finally decided to step-up and do some damage repair. However, as I check other profiles that have been done by others, I see lots of "dreck" left and no new citation links. I have to wonder if I'm doing too much work?

Some Data Doctors will work on the whole profile while others just fix one suggestion without doing the other issues. Also most Data doctors work on fixing errors not finding sources.
That doesn't mean that doing the extra work finding new sources and connections and fixing all the suggestions are not appreciated.
Just do whatever work you feel necessary to do and remember that whatever you do no matter how big or small it is will always help make the profiles better which will help Wikitree be the best it can be.
