Thank you for contributing towards the goals of the England Project! Over the past year, a staggering amount has been done to improve English profiles on WikiTree and we couldn't have done it without you and our other project members.
The England Project leadership like to check in with all our project members at least once a year.
Are you happy to stay in your current project team/s? Or is there another team you would like to join or become more active in?
Please reply to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message. I look forward to hearing from you. Please also let us know if you have other feedback about the direction of the project.
Many thanks!
Dave, on behalf of the England Project leadership
I'm not active in the England Project right now, so if you need the "space" on the team, feel free to remove me. You just never know what the next day will bring! I won't get heartburn if you do (or if you don't.)
Best to you and the project.
Susan
The Profile Improvement Project (PIP) is performing a check-in with project members. Please review the following and respond to let us know that you are content with your current team or if you would like to be more involved.
The Project operates in a team structure. There are currently three participant PIP Teams -- The Maintenance Category Team, the Unknowns Team, and the Biography Team. There is also the Voyage Team which guides new Voyagers. See the Profile Improvement Project Teams for a brief outline of each team.
There are currently three different Biography Teams - The Biography Team, the Abandoned Team, and the Popular Team.
You're currently identified as a member of the Biography Team. The Biography Team works on profiles from their watchlist and other profiles that interest them.
Are you happy with the Team you are on? If you are interested in working with a different Team, please let us know.
If you have not already done so, we invite you to join the email GoogleGroup and text chat Discord channel for our project. (You will need your Wiki ID for both). Neither is required; we also use the Profile_Improvement tag in G2G for Project announcements.
We thank you for all you do to help the Profile Improvement Project meet its goals. We would like to hear about the successes you’ve had and would also appreciate any feedback you have to help improve the Project. Please share your thoughts in a reply to this comment or via private message to one of us.
Sincerely,
Debi Hoag and Kay Knight, Co-Leaders, Profile Improvement Project
Robin Shaules, Project Coordinator, Profile Improvement Project
Yes, I'm happy to be on the Biography Team. Are we tracking improvements? If so, how?
I joined the Wikitree server on Discord but don't see the PIP channel. Please just let me know how to access the channel.
Please let me know how I can help or how I can improve my team activity. Lovely to hear from you.
Susan
Thanks for the response. We aren't specifically tracking improvements, other than your Contributions or things that might appear from participation in things like the Sourcers Challenge or GEDImprove.
You should be able to see the #profile-improvement channel. Let me know if you don't see this, and we'll investigate.

I believe I'm only on the Data Doctor England Team, and I'm not very active there. I'd like to keep the status quo, if that works.
Best,
Susan

Sure, please leave me on. I just need reminders to go clean up those profiles. Just did.
Thanks, and all the best.
Susan
I appreciate the help on the Defoe profiles. I just have not gotten back to them. I entered them when I could not give them full attention. I will be going back in and editing, sourcing better and more, as well as formatting the biographies. Thank you for the time you have put in to them.
