If you are participating in the 2020 52 Ancestors and/or 52 Photos challenges, please post here so we can make sure you get the participation badge.

You can also post here if you have reached a 13 in 13, 26 in 26 or 52 in 52 milestone so you can get those badges. 

Thanks!

Hello - first time trying to do something here other than ask questions!  If this is the right place to submit an ancestor whose's story should be made into a movie, may I submit Charles Asgill https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Asgill-2 ?  Professor Peter Henriques has just had a book come out, First and Always https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=4IbRDwAAQBAJ&lpg=PP1&pg=PT71#v=onepage&q&f=false which tells his story, and Peter is determined to get it onto the silver screen!  I am keeping all my fingers and toes crossed that he succeeds!

I am new and want to post a beard photo. Does a participation badge enable an ANSWER button?
I’ve just added a photo to the 52 Photos challenge. Interesting project.
This is my first participation - in the Veterans Challenge.

My original post here was in reply to Kay Knight's comment that two people on my tree needed sources.

"Kay Knight's new app checks your tree for profiles with missing sources or style issues. View results for Newton-9481 and reply to Kay with your questions and comments."

My response was that Charles Asgill's Wikipedia page is already the source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir_Charles_Asgill,_2nd_Baronet and his mistress, Mary Ann Mansel, also has a Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Ann_Mansel

I should be most grateful if Kay Knight would amend accordingly and remove the "lack of sources" commentary please.  I would do so myself except I do not know how to do so.

I have completed all #52Ancestors in the #52Ancestors in 52 weeks challenge!
This is the first time I have participated in a challenge and I'm not sure this is how I'm supposed to post about it! Endings is just another way to say Beginnings in my case. I posted a photo taken at the burial of my great-grandfather, George Henry Jones.
Hello, I completed in December the 52 ancestors challenge with all 52 weeks. There must be a badge coming? Thanks and have a good new year.
I only made one, very late contribution. Do I rate a badge anyway? Thanks.
I also made one very late one. I was just going to give up, but if there's a chance, I'll fight for it. (lol)

I reached my 13 in 13 for the 52 Ancestors a couple weeks ago (Week 13, fancy that!) but just realized that I was supposed to post here to get my badge. In general, I don't mind missing out on a badge or two, but this time I really feel like I earned it!

I just tried to post on the regular page for the first time but oddly, it said it was a duplicate. What can I do?

Hi Jennie, double check to make sure it didn't already post and then give it another shot.
Also, got everyone up to here! (I hope.)
I did try again, got the same answer (that it was a duplicate). Not sure what happened; even if I accidentally hit add answer twice, the first one should have shown up, no?

I signed up for the 52/52, but I have reached the 13/13. Do we get badges for each milestone or only the one we signed up for? Thank you!

I've never tried this before.  I'd nominate my Father Robert Raebel. He was and Engineer in the RAAF in WW2. Seconded to the RAF he flew from Scotland to Russia in September 1942 to provide cover for an Arctic convoy, which if lost, would have knocked Russia out of WW2. He finally got his flying licence in 1988 aged 72.

I'd love to partiapate but my cut and paste doesn't want to work here, this has happened to me before. It doesn't fix my terrible spelling either, but lucky for me, I do know how to research and I scan everything I can get my hands on, my relative or not so please all me in for I have HOPE.

Hi, I've posted my first photograph in the 52 Ancestors and/or 52 Photos Challenges. Very excited to be participating. Cheers

BTW I'm never sure if I should be commenting or answering when responding to a G2G query so I hope I've managed to get this the right way round
