Nebraska Days

Profile manager: Judi Stutz [send private message]

Welcome to the Nebraska Days challenge on Wikitree!

This challenge is based upon March 1st, the date this state joined as the 37th state in the United States and the calendar.com celebration of National Nebraska Day on April 5th.^[1] Again, this is a month-long challenge from March 1st through April 5th.

The challenge consists of the following tasks to be completed:

1. Create 5 new profiles for anyone born in Nebraska;
2. Create 5 new profiles for anyone who died in Nebraska;
3. Compile new biographies for 5 Nebraska-related profiles;
4. Connect 5 or more Nebraska-related profiles to the global Wikitree;
   

These next tasks are specific to previously Nebraska-related created profiles before 1 Mar 2024:

1. Improve 5 or more Nebraska-related profiles by adding the Nebraska Sticker and/or associated category to a profile with no sticker or categories.
2. Improve 5 or more Nebraska-related profiles by adding dates to a blank field [error 133];
3. Improve 5 or more Nebraska-related profiles by adding sources to profiles with no sources at all.

("Nebraska-related" can be someone who either was born, lived, or died in Nebraska or had to do with any Nebraska historical event.)
