Introduction
Members of the US Southern Colonies Project Managed Profiles Team handle some of the most contentious and notable profiles of US Southern Colonists.
In carrying out its activities, the project manages person profiles in order to:
- reduce conflicts and improve the accuracy of profiles of US Southern Colonists
- research and improve profiles of notable US Southern Colonists
- preserve profiles of US Southern Colonists that represent extensive work
The project accomplishes this in a variety of ways including:
- collaborating with other WikiTreers
- following the profile of a US Southern Colonist by adding the project to the Trusted List
- managing and additionally, in some cases, protecting the profile of a US Southern Colonist
