Have you registered for the Source-a-Thon yet? (3) [closed]

Question

This registration thread is full. Please post in the current one to register.

September 28 - October 1 — the start of Family History Month — is our third annual "Source-a-Thon".

This three-day event is for a good cause (sourced genealogy!) and there will be over $3,000 in door prizes donated from around the genealogy community. It will be lots of fun.

The event will go from Friday, September 28 at 8 AM (ET) to Monday, October 1, 8 AM (ET).  Note: We've changed the start/end time from last year.

You are already on their team.

We got a Nor'Easter coming in so get ready to storm those unsourced profiles. If you have the moxie, spreadsheets, walk-thrus, nets, and harpoons, we got it all. Climb aboard. We concentrate on but are not limited to the New England and Canadian Maritimes area. Just say you wanna go Nor'Easter. 

Sourcing Primer Tutorial will help you get ready.

Answer 3

Yes, I'd like to participate in the Source-a-Thon. Because I'm Dutch, I would like to participate "Team Flying Dutchmen-Vliegende Hollanders".

Comments

Thanks W. V.! You're 341.

---

Ha W! 

Welcome to Team Flying Dutchmen! :)  Here is our Team page/Hier onze teampagina.

Ik zet je vast op de lijst! Als je op Edit klikt kun je nog wat toevoegen aan je naam als je wilt. 

---

Hoi W en welkom bij WIkiTree en team Vliegende Hollanders !

Ik zie dat je nog niet zo heel lang lid bent en Nederlands, dus het Nederlands Portaal is dan vast heel handig, we hebben Wikitree uitgelegd in het Nederlands met veel voorbeelden o.a ook het Introductieprogramma 

ook is er het Dutch Roots Project waar jij natuurlijk ook van harte welkom bent, om lid te worden vragen we alle leden om eerst de Pre-1700 test te doen, dit omdat er erg veel vroege profielen zijn die wel wat hulp kunnen gebruiken en om aan Pre-1700 profielen te kunnen/mogen werken heb je bij WikiTree die badge nodig, dus die is bij een groot evenement als de Source-a-Thon natuurlijk ook wel handig. 

Door te klikken op de afbeelding kom je op onze Vliegende Hollanders-Flying Dutchmen team pagina waar we je naam en nummer aan het team zullen toevoegen en we hebben ook een chat G2G waar je ook al veel info kunt vinden (ook in het Nederlands) over de Source-a-Thon :)

 

---

Double welcome! You see we love you join us! :)

Well we are just so happy you joined us we welcomed you twice!

---

Thank you for all the welcomes! :) I am glad to be a part of the source-a-thon again. I got a bit distracted with life, so I am a bit behind. Trying to catch up and do what I can. :)

Thanks, Geoff! You're #345.

Answer 8

I will gladly join the Source-A-Thon, though I tend to work slowly and end up revising revisions (sometimes Preview just doesn't bring the full picture, and highlight potential weaknesses the same as the saved profile). My goal will be quality over quantity.
