Introduction

(Note: This page is a sub-page of the Let others know what locations you are working on page. For more details about what's going on here, please read that page. Also, please post any messages about what's happening on this page on the Connectors Chat page.)

This page lists the largest branches which remain unconnected to the main tree for different countries (and, in some cases, subdivisions within countries) in Oceania. Our goal is to list a minimum of five unconnected branches for each place, although you will notice that a number of places have many more than five branches listed.

If you are looking for unconnected notables, please see the Unconnected Notables page.

It would be good to have at least one connector working on each country in the world, and at least one connector working on each subdivision of larger countries (states, counties, provinces, etc.). There is a list below, please enter your details and the locations that interest you. If you want to connect in a country which doesn't already have a section here, please post a message to the Connectors Chat page, and we'll add a section for you.

• If you find that all the branches in a country are already connected (or you can't work on them for other reasons), you can find more by clicking on the "Unconnected profiles for place" link at the bottom of that section. This will lead you to a new report that Aleš has created specifically for the Connectors Project. That report lists all the unconnected branches which have at least 50 profiles in them, with at least one profile in that branch listing a person who was born or died in that country. The branches are listed in order by size.
  • If you find that the connecting profile is private, you can click on the "T" link after the profile ID to see a relative search page for that person on WikiTreePlus. Hopefully, at least some of the profiles in that branch will be open so you can work on them.
  • You can also click on the "S" link after the profile ID to see a full list of all the profiles in that branch.
  • If you find that a branch in that report is already connected, please send the details to Aleš so he can fix the problem.

• You can can also find more unconnected profiles from that country by clicking on the country name at the head of that section: you'll be taken to the category for that country. That category lists individual profiles rather than branches, but you're bound to find something.

Free space profiles (like this one) work pretty much the same way that profiles for people do, so all the same syntax applies. So to show that you are working on a branch, edit this page, scroll down to the listing you want work on, and replace the number at the end of the line with two opening square brackets ([), then your WikiTree ID, then a pipe (|), then your name, then two closing square brackets (]), like this: [[Example-123|Ferdinand Grubstake]].

Similarly, when you connect a branch (or discover one that's already connected), add Connected (or Found connected) and then the date. Put three single quotes (') before and after "connected" to put it into bold, like this: "'Connected'" February 29, 2020. One of the page pruners will then delete that entry in a couple of weeks, after everybody has had a chance to celebrate the new connection.
