I was looking at this profile as a model for a good profile, after finding the profile improvment page today.
[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Richard-74 Michel Richard]]

And I made a change to the very last entry to "pretty it up".
When the message popped up to ask a question before making a change I was not sure if it was allowable for me to make a change on a pre-1700 profile.  Maybe I am supposed to be part of a project to make changes?

I guess maybe I made a "newbie" mistake.  I was working with my profiles yesterday improve the formatting.  So I was just was drawn to "fix" it.  Was I wrong to do so?
the entry was
*Added by Catherine Olmstead:

the change I made was so there was as source to go along with the number.  I also brought the link up so that is a space after the entry.

Hi Mary,

The Acadian Project welcomes profile improvements to our Acadian profiles. Thank you!

We would ask that any volunteers such as yourself, contact the project if you want to make significant changes to the profile such as changing a date or surname, or, changing, adding or removing parents, children or spouses. Or, if you just want to say hi-we're a friendly bunch.

No newbie mistake at all--with over 5,000 profiles to monitor, we welcome the help.

Best Regards,

Jacqueline Girouard
