Good evening fellow Team Missouri teammate!    

Since Eowyn provided the major links in her email, I'm dropping by with the other main one you'll need. This will take you to the state links for the suggestions that need to be fixed.  https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:DBE_Errors_By#East_North_Central  Click on the state you want to work on and it will bring up a huge chart of suggestions. If you have any question about how things work or if there's any issues, drop a note in the Team chat or PM me.    

And the most important thing is...have fun!

Go Team MO!!

Jo,

Thanks for submitting the pre-1700 form.

I'm the Coordinator of WikiTree's Massachusetts Project inside of which some of your research falls.

It looks like the sources you are using are good ones. If you'd like to learn more about the project, visit:

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Massachusetts

There's information there, too, about the types of sources we use (and what we avoid). A good source of Massachusetts information is ma-vitalrecords.org

Consider yourself having communicated with a project-- you don't need to fill out the form again for Massachusetts-related profiles you're working on.
