Voyage Skills
- Writing biographies with inline sources & appropriate headings (narrative style preferred by the project; outline style allowed if the Voyager indicates a preference for that)
- Adding detailed sources for the facts (who, which event, where, when; what source location). Also the apps are helpful: WikiTree Sourcer is great for finding records and WikiTree BEE can help you bring in sources on linked profiles.
- Updating locations with as much detail as is known (city, township, county, state, country); the locations dropdown contains suggestions which are not always accurate
- Adding a picture or image of a document
- Linking or adding profiles for family members (knowing how is required; adding all is not)
- Adding Stickers (immigration, location, military, died young, project)
- Adding categories (location, occupation, military, project)

- Searching for possible duplicates
- Checking the suggestions list for that profile
