Description

This Sticker may be used for any person who has been identified as having African ancestry, including active WikiTree members. It may be used regardless of African country or ethnic group and is especially helpful for those who don't know which specific area of Africa they originate from. You may also add one of the 19 major people groups of Africa. (Note: specific country stickers will be created in the future)

To add this sticker to a profile, place the string similar to the text in Code used: column of Examples table anywhere in the biography part of the profile. Usually you should put it next to the text describing a Sticker, but it should always be below the == Biography == heading and above the == Sources == heading.
