Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, here are a few more features you may find useful:

• You can find recommended profile formats and tips on writing biographies in Styles and Standards.

• To describe an event, an heirloom or a location, you can use a Free Space Profile.

• Sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. See our process for resolving these situations.

If you have questions or problems with WikiTree, feel free to post a comment on my profile page or send me a private message.

Carole Partridge, WikiTree Mentor

Thanks for joining WikiTree! As a mentor I'm here to help. If you have questions or problems with WikiTree (including your GEDCOM), contact me via my profile page.

• Remember to add dates and locations to new profiles. Our vision is to build a collaborative tree with just one profile per person, so make sure to look for duplicates! http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Duplicates

• If you have royal ancestors, contact the EuroAristo Project to see about connecting to pre-existing royal lines: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:European_Aristocrats

• If you feel lost, start with "How To Use WikiTree": http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/How_to_use_WikiTree, and check out the Help Index: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:WikiTree_Help

Carole Partridge, WikiTree Mentor

You are now a member of the WikiTree Community. Please note we are trying to build one Collaborative Tree which means one profile per person. It is important to ensure no duplicates are entered as you add any Profiles to WikiTree.

If you need any help getting started check out the help section from the menu, top left, or head over to the G2G forum, you might want to check out the introductory WikiTree video that a member created.

Our Mentor Team are a friendly bunch of volunteers who will be glad to help you with specific problems if you have any.

Good luck growing your branches, and thanks for offering to help with our shared tree :)

Of course. That's why I uploaded two files. How do I become a member?

I noticed you plan to or uploaded a GEDCOM. Here's a link to a great step-by-step of the process including screenshots that you might find helpful.

step-by-step of the process

The help pages give lots of information about the process, best to start with 'Before you import a GEDCOM'.

When you've got a moment can you just say hello and introduce yourself and verify that you wish to be confirmed as a full contributing member.

Welcome to WikiTree, and thank you for your interest.

If you just want to look things up, or upload a GEDCOM for match, you do not need to take further actions.

If you want to contribute to WikiTree (add profiles, collaborate etc.), you must sign up as a volunteer. Doing so I will ask you to tell a little about your plans on your profile page. Do not volunteer unless you plan to contribute please!

After volunteering you can sign the HONOR CODE. You'll then become a full member and can help grow WikiTree through participation in the community. WikiTree also have MENTORS in case you need guidance.
