I've been doing a lot of sourcing the last two months, but I don't just add a source and leave it.  I try to find out as much as I can and add sourced information to that effect.  Prior to mid-February I would not have considered that I was a "Sourcerer" (and I don't really think of myself that way now, although I love doing it).  While not as fully fleshed out as some profiles, or as "pretty", I do my best to write up what information I add in a semi-narrative way, so it's not just "name: DoB<ref>" "name: married DoM<ref>" "name: DoD <ref>" .. .. or name born BDM # etc.  (Sorry, but to me that's not a source.)

My biggest sticking point to signing up to be part of these projects (DD, PIP etc) is the use of google groups (see "the Data Doctors Project Google Group which is our project member communication forum").  Even my "home team", the Australia Project, which was happy to use G2G and facebook when I first joined, is now, according to recent posts, using google groups (which makes me very sad).

I will continue to do what I do as well as I can do it, but without the "backing" of being part of any of the groups .. which makes me sad.  So sad.

Hi, Melanie,

You are not required to join the DD Google Group as we use both G2G and DDGG to communicate.  While most of the conversations do occur in the Google Group, all announcements are made in G2G.

So if you would like to join, please answer the joining post and we will proceed accordingly.
If I see errors and they are something I know how to fix, I will.  If I can learn to fix the things I cannot yet do, I try to learn it.

This is pretty much what I do when I source a profile.  (This one had more info than many I have done, so it may look "prettier".)

If you think I am suited, I will answer.

Melanie,

You are "suited" - we will process your request.

Thank you for your interest.
