You may have been hard at work getting connected to family members who are already here and adding those who were missing. You probably have at least a few profiles that you manage now.
There's a fast and easy way to access those profiles using the Watchlist. So, this week we're going to look at How to Manage Your Watchlist.
Please let one of us know if you have questions! Just click my name above the comment, then ask in the comment section of my page. We want to help!
Thanks, WikiMessenger Cindy
PS Good work so far! Have you noticed on your ancestor profiles on the bottom right is "Research" where you can get sources and more information? Give it a try sometime!
I see that you just did the Pre-1700 Self-Certification. That's great! Also noticed you made 130 contributions to Wikitree, thank you! Here at WikiTree we like to have our members involved with others; collaboration is key!
By your one tag, I thought you might like to check out our Mayflower project at: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Mayflower . The leader of this project is Becky Syphers. Here is a list of our other WikiTree projects you might like to check out: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Projects
Why don't you also stop by the One Name Studies project, to see if there's already a name study for (surname). The current leaders for that are Doug Lockwood and Alison Andrus.

You've been here for several weeks now! We hope your profiles are starting to come together and that you've enjoyed getting to know all of us a little better.
You're probably getting a good feel for the collaborative nature of WikiTree by now. We know that collaboration isn't always easy. So, we've put together a few pointers that can make working in this type of environment a little easier: How to be a Successful WikiTreer.
As always, your questions are welcome!

It's time for the next stop on your guided tour.
This week, we'd like to introduce you to the WikiTree community, including ways to get involved, and how to stay updated on new developments: How to Join in the Community.
I'm always happy to answer questions!

You've been here a week now, and we hope you enjoyed your first stop on your guided tour of WikiTree and were able to make good use of the things you learned.
Our next stop will give you some pointers on how to make your profiles stand out: How to Make the Most of a Profile.
As always, your questions are welcome!

I'm just checking in to see how things are going. Are you enjoying WikiTree so far? Any questions? Any issues?
Feel free to contact me via my profile page. I am happy to help!
You are now a confirmed member and can get started adding your family members. As we've said, WikiTree is quite different from other genealogy sites. For that reason we've put together a guided tour to help you learn how to use the site. Your first stop is How to Start Climbing Our Tree.
Tomorrow you'll hear from a WikiTree mentor, who will check in to see how you're doing and to answer any questions you might have.
Next week you'll get another message with your next stop on the guided tour.
You can meet some of our members by joining in on our Question of the Week: "Do you have any heroic volunteers in your branch?"
Welcome!
Karen
