Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, there are a few more features you may find useful. Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards, including some tips on writing biographies.
If you need to describe an event, an heirloom or a location relevant to your research, you may like to learn about Free Space Profiles.
Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a
process for resolving those unfortunate situations.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask via my profile page.
Congratulations, you are now a member of the WikiTree Community. Please do remember when adding anything to wikitree that the aim of this website is to build one Collaborative Tree which means one profile per person. So always check for duplicates as you add any Profiles to WikiTree and make sure you provide sources where possible.
If you need any help check out the help section from the menu, top left, or head over to the G2G forum. You can also watch the introductory WikiTree video that one member created.
Our Mentor Team are a group of volunteers who will be glad to help you with any specific problems.
