I have never uploaded a gedcom file to wikitree. I adopted a number of profiles created by Fred Dennis. As I was adding sources to his unsourced entries, I hand-created additional profiles. When I saw a duplicate, I proposed a merge. If you are not able to complete the merge of Mills-18553 and Mills-18066, I am happy to do it. But I would need to be on the trusted list of your profile.
