This month, the Notables Project is celebrates 40 of baseball's all-time greatest players!

Our goal is to make each of these profiles a shining star of WikiTree. Some are already pretty close, others not so much.

For ideas on what an ideal profile entails, please see the Completed Profile Checklist.

For those who prefer research over profile building, we also want to increase each of our notables' CC7s, and of course, we want to make sure each is connected to the Big Tree. We'll be updating CC7 numbers on a semi-regular basis in the table below.

Remember, no contribution is too small, so jump in wherever you think you'll have the most fun. Just remember to keep us posted on your accomplishments on the G2G thread.

Note: An "N/C" in the final column indicates that this person is currently NOT CONNECTED to the Main WikiTree. A "C" means they have recently been CONNECTED by a team member. Those with empty boxes came into the project already connected.

Bob Feller was a great pitcher, looks like someone accidentally made him a second baseman.

Oops! Thanks for catching that, Clifford. I've made the correction. (Sorry Bob!)

Great job Natalie. You have officially taken us to the halfway point. We began with fourteen unconnected baseball legends. After two weeks we have just seven left to go!
