I have added a birth date (31 June 1877)  to the profile Farquhar-714  several times. It simply doesn't show up after the edit is saved. What do I do?

His birth date is actually 31 May 1877 according to his military records.
Thanks, Deb!
Findagrave says June 31, 1877...but whatever the accurate date, wikitree indicates I've made edits, they just don't show up to the profile? Beyond further researching the birth date for accuracy, how do I solve the other issue?
June 31 is an invalid date, which is probably why it doesn't show up.  Try a test with June 30, July 1, or May 31, and I think it will work just fine.

The FaG entry says June 31, but May 31 is carved in stone.  His WW I draft card also says May 31.  The person who created the FaG memorial probably just made a mistake.
That worked! Thanks

You're welcome!  smiley
