Kia ora Dean,
The time has come again for the Connect-A-Thon, and we would be thrilled if you could join the Kiwi Crew once more. It's a breeze to participate—all you have to do is craft fresh profiles for individuals who have yet to be linked, and hopefully, they'll connect with the World Tree.
To sign up, head to the
post, where you'll receive your Connect-a-Thon badge and be added to the team. When registering, please don't forget to mention the Kiwi Crew.
For additional details, please take a look at the Kiwi Crew Team page.
Happy WikiTreeing!
Campbell
After a long break, we are now getting the New Zealand Project back in action. I notice that you are already a member of the Kiwi Crew Discord server. This is where we are discussing how the project will be organised, though any major changes will be signposted in G2G. (Make sure you follow the new_zealand tag).
Fiona - New Zealand Project Co-ordinator (Membership)
Hi Dean,
A group of Kiwis participate in Wiki-Thons four times a year, and we have one coming up in July and we would like to invite you to join the KiwiCrew in the upcoming Connect-A-Thon. Participation is easy, simply create new profiles for unconnected people and with luck, they will connect with the World Tree.
Simply post an answer on this
Post saying "Yes, I'd like to participate with the KiwiCrew". Once registered, you will receive your Connect-a-Thon badge.
For more information, view the Kiwi Crew Team page
Happy WikiTreeing, Campbell
Thanks for taking responsibility for the Orphaned Profile. This After Adopting Orphans FAQ explains the special attention adopted profiles will sometimes need from their profile managers. One quick way to find the profiles you adopted is by searching your Contributions List for the word "adopted" and "manager." You can find a quick link to your Contributions List in the My WikiTree dropdown menu.
Let me know if you have any questions on how to find and record sources, merge duplicates, clean up GEDCOM biographies, and interpret the Suggestions report. I'm here to help!
Debi
PS If the profile needs GEDCOM cleanup, the AGC tool can help with formatting so that you can concentrate on the research. You can read more about it in the WikiTree AGC FAQ.

It’s time for a Project check-in!
Scotland Project Leaders check in with you at least once a year to see how you are doing. With the changes happening around the world, we understand that life is hectic right now.
What are you planning to work on for the Scotland Project this year? Are you happy with the team(s) you part of, or would you like to make some changes?
This time round, we’re also looking for feedback on the use of Google Group and Discord. Do you use one or both of these? If you don’t use either of them, what is the best way to ensure you receive Project communications? If you would like to join us on Google Group or Discord, let us know in your response.
As a member of the Scotland Project, we'd love to have you join the Twisted Thistles in the upcoming Connect-a-thon the weekend of July 17 - July 20. If you'd like to join us and help to develop our ever-expanding Scottish tree, please register on the G2G post here and be sure to mention you'd like to be on the Twisted Thistles team for Scotland.
We also have our team Chat page posted here.
Thanks for taking the Pre-1700 Quiz!
Seems like you have jumped into a few projects already! Here are a few tips to keep in mind.
Because pre-1700 ancestors are shared by many descendants, working with members of the projects which coordinate them is essential. You can learn more about joining the community in How To #3 and in the Project FAQ.
Sources are very important here on Wikitree, especially on Pre-1700 profiles. It is how we show where we got the info and help others find it too. Find out more about sources here and more detailed info here.
If you have any questions, click reply below this message and I will get back to you.
