Scotland Project Mini Source-A-Thon

Since we have done the Mini Clean-A-Thon for the past month, we have now increased our Unsourced Scotland profiles.

We will select a couple of locations, as well as the generic Scotland Unsourced profiles to work on for a month.

We will update the Totals weekly to see how we are improving our Unsourced counts.

Thanks for helping to clean up the Wikitree Tree !!

Scotland Unsourced Profiles for Mar 2023

Please try to add as many sources as you can find to each profile. We strive for accuracy, not quantity, when working on sourcing of profiles.

• Remember that urls from Scotlands People should not be included in the Source citations because others will not be able to use them.

• Review the Example Citations section of Scotland Sourcing Help for the source citation formats that should be used. For Scotlands People, only the main site url should be included, as well as all of the index information so others can find the same record.

• IF you are using the Sourcer app, the Scotland Project has a document with the Preferences for setting up Options on Sourcer App

• Any questions, please ask Linda Peterson or Sheena Tait

• Dates to always keep in mind - UK started 1801, Northern Ireland started 1921
