Goals

  1. To review and improve all project-managed profiles to ensure that they have adequate sources and biographies and are connected to our main WikiTree.
  2. To identify, review, and improve the profile of any notable Canadian that could be considered for future project management.
  3. To identify, review, and improve Canada project-managed profiles for possible submission on upcoming WikiTree's Connection Finders nominations including by increasing CC7 numbers on the profiles.
  4. To add (until resolved) the following new maintenance categories on Canada Project managed profiles if appropriate:
Category: Canada Project Notables, Needs Connection
Category: Canada Project Notables, Needs Biography
Category: Canada Project Notables, Needs More Sources

Procedures

  1. Team members may select any profile(s) on the following lists to work on. Either post a comment on this page for the team leader or send him a private message about your choice. And let the team leader know when you have finished.
  2. Team members may also nominate other Canada project profiles for inclusion.
  3. Some profiles may be PPP. If you are interested in working on any of those, please send the team leader a message to request to be added to the trusted list.
  4. The choice of a connection finder will depend partly on the notable person's CC7, i.e. their connection count within seven degrees. Read here about notable connections Notable Connections. The more connections a nominee will have, the more likely it is for all WikiTree members to find a close and interesting connection to them. So, to help the Project's nominees, please help grow their CC7. (If you want to check on someone's CC7, you can use the CC7 view App by clicking Find CC7 and enter the WikiTree ID. It may take a few minutes to load each of the 7 generations. The resulting table may help to identify where relatives can be added.))
  5. If you see any Notables Project boxes or Notables Project stickers on profiles for Canadian notables or profiles of individuals from Canada who have Wikipedia pages, in order to populate the Canada Notables Category, please change/add the profile to have a category that reads:
  • {{Notables Sticker|Canada, Notables}} if the profile is not managed by the Notables Project; and
  • {{Notables|Canada, Notables}} if the profile is managed by the Notables Project.

One of the following four options will be correct for a Canadian notable (i.e. - has a Wikipedia page; If no Wikipedia page, ask first)

1. Here is an example with a Canada box (Canada Project is a manager) and a Notables sticker (No Notables management)

{{Canada}}
== Biography ==
{{Notables Sticker|Canada, Notables}}

2. Here is an example of a Canada box (Canada Project is a manager) and a Notables Box (Notables Project is a manager) where both projects manage a profile

{{Canada}}
{{Notables|Canada, Notables}}
== Biography ==

3. Here is an example of a Notables box (Notables Project is a manager)

{{Notables|Canada, Notables}}
== Biography ==

4. Here is an example where neither the Canada Project (no Canada box) nor the Notables Project (no Notables box) is a manager.

== Biography ==
{{Notables Sticker|Canada, Notables}}

Suggest Profiles for Canada Project Management Inclusion

If you have suggestions for other profiles that should be managed, please enter the suggestions on the form at: Canadian Managed Profiles Suggestions Form

Note: When we add the project account as a manager on a profile, it is to partner with current profile managers, never to replace them.

Team Activity

The first list represents some profiles that need work and have identified monthly birthdays or are otherwise being worked on, while the second table contains possible inclusions for upcoming Connection Finders.

These lists will be updated regularly.

Canada Managed Notables Profiles Needing Assistance

1.Please review this list of unconnected Canada Project managed notables whose privacy setting is not unlisted. (Note - It may take a few minutes to load) This list is updated weekly.

2. A more current list of profiles needing to be connected may be found here: Canada Project Notables, Need Connection. This list, however, includes some unlisted profiles.

Each month, additional notables are added to the list.

March 2024 Canada Notables - Visual Media

The Canada Project's connection challenge for February 2024 - Visual Media is open. We are highlighting 10 notables that need to be connected to the Global Family Tree. Can you help by adding profiles of family members until a connection to the Global WikiTree is made?
