November 2019 BioBuilders - People born in November

1.2k views

This month’s Bio Builders Challenge theme is people born in the month of November. Everyone have fun.

Thank you for your support.

Here's our checklist:

Data Section:

  • birth date/place
  • names of parents
  • marriage date/place and spouse name
  • names of children, if any
  • death date/place

Biography Section:

  • Written (full) sentences stating the facts above, adding inline sources to each fact.
  • Is the profile '''Genealogically Defined?'''
  • As a general rule biographies should be in your own words. Paraphrase and rewrite, don't copy/paste.
  • Baptism, burial, military, and other life events with inline sources.
  • Something to "humanize" the person, such as career or avocation with sources.
  • List of children with at least one pertinent fact.
  • Some list siblings. (I think this takes up real estate.)
  • Explanatory remarks, if needed (e.g. disputed persons information, Research Notes, whatever needs extra explaining).
  • Photos or pictures, background. Not a must, but nice (you need to own the copyright unless they are in the public domain).
  • Categories.
  • Connection to the Global Tree.
  • All duplicates merged or initiated.
  • Links to persons and events, perhaps from Wikipedia.
  • Historical context as related to the person's life.
  • Sources, Sources, Sources.

You can see some ideas on where to find some of this information on the Biography Builders space page.

NOTE: Biography Builders will not show on the tracker. Please add a list to your answer.

I will be happy to do this months
I just checked out the spreadsheet and September hasn't been added yet. Will it be added to the stas, soon?
Stats should be up soon.
Thank you :)

What about people that were baptized in November and the date of birth is not known?

Ummmmm, OK. I always try to give everyone a break when it comes to biographies.
How can I see the spreadsheet?
