I was adding you to the Trusted List of Bukele and Cerén and I want to add you as a co-manager but I don't know how to do that. Can you help me, please?
I noticed Peck-2426 (The actor portraying the game warden in Jurassic Park who said, "Clever girl....") didn't have a notables sticker, so I gave him one, added sources, fixed the Wikipedia source, and gave him a bio (It could be better, though). I don't see him on the Project: Notables List, but I don't know enough about that page, so I'll let you or others edit the bigger parts of it.
I did edit Jerry Lewis' part from No to Yes under the Connected column. It says Needs Biolography, but it looks like someone already gave him some sort of biography. I'm not sure if there's anything needed to add to his bio, but I'll let you be the judge.

After I came across a Facebook post of his deeds, I was curious about my relation/connection to him. When I found he wasn't on WikiTree, I found him on FamilySearch and Wikipedia, so I started him a profile to honor his deeds to the best of my abilities (being that I've only been a member since March-ish, I don't know how to make sources with the brackets and numbers, yet).

Could you request to be on the trusted list so I can approve you? [1]
I came across this profile while working on his sister and I am trying to add his family and hopefully connect them to the tree. I believe he should be in the Notables project. Please take a look when you have a few minutes and let me know. TIA! Silas Apostle Jones (1936-2016)
His likewise notable nephew is Star Trek actor Alexander Siddig, and once I get him connected Wikitree will include his nth-great-grandpa Muhammad Ahmad, the founder of the Mahdist state in the Sudan.
I have just added a man, see Lukis-7. I haven't added any biography yet but he was the Director General of the Indian Medical Service and honary surgeon to George V and knighted, amongst other things. I wondered if he should be considered notable and what that involves. He also links to India and I don't know where to find what to do. Can you advise please? Thanks, Sue (Pardey-31)
There are several ways to qualify for Notables, and the easiest way to check if a profile qualifies for a project is to check the project page. If you've never done this, all you need to do is (from your top menu) go to Find -- Projects. In this case, scroll down to Notables and open the project page (may need to click 2 links to get this to open, as the first one you may see just drops you to a preview on that same "projects" page).
Here is the direct link to the Notables Project page. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Notables
What you'll read there is that any profile that has a Wikipedia article specifically on them automatically qualifies for Notables. So what this means is that you can put the Notables sticker onto that profile. To do this, just below the = Biography = header, you can addThat will add them to the project automatically.
You will also want to consider adding categories to the profile to help identify what they are Notable for, as well as to help others find them in groups of their peers. I see he was an Editor (there is a category for Editors), and that he held the title of "Sir" and had an "MD". I believe the title came from two awards he received:
Commander of the Order of the Star of India, 1910 Knight Commander of the Order of the Star of India, 1911
I'd see if there are categories in place for these as well. Finally, it appears he co-authored a book. Authors or Writers are both categories (not sure what the difference is), but I would add Authors to him.
Hope that helps.

Thanks, that helps a lot, I will follow up on your advice. I find Wikitree rather overwhelming at times. Kind Regards, Sue

The only profiles Notables is required to manage are those that are non-open privacy or ones where there may be some risk of controversial edits. All others are left open for adoption by design.
