Team Purpose and Goals
The purpose of the Medieval Profiles Team is to add and improve the profiles of individuals living in Scotland during the medieval period which, for the purposes of this project, has been defined as lasting from approximately 476 (the fall of Rome) to 1500. Our goal is to make every single profile from this time period the best it can possibly be, including reliable source material and concisely written biographies. The members of this team will frequently work cooperatively with the Scotland Project's Managed Profiles, Nobility, Scottish Clans, and Arbroath teams, as well as with WikiTree's newly formed Medieval Project. The Scotland Project's Medieval Team members commit to using this managed files checklist when working on medieval project files.
Team members looking for medieval files needing improvement, please check here. We are in this for the long haul--it is a big list--but each profile we work on brings us closer to our goal.
Scotland Project members interested in joining this team should post a comment on this page, or contact Jen Hutton directly. A pre-1500 badge is required.
