I'm Eowyn, a WikiTree Mentor and Team Member. Our primary vision is to build a collaborative tree with just one profile per person. The farther back in your tree, the more likely you will find duplicate profiles to link into, so it's a good idea to do a search before you create a new profile. Try to add an estimated date and place of birth, at the very least, a country, for each person. This helps in searches. Last but not least, try to source each profile as you go.
P.S. Do you have Royal Ancestors? If so, they are already here on Wikitree! Rather than create duplicate profiles for them, please contact the EuroAristo Project to discuss connecting your family line to their already existing profiles. Thanks!
I'm glad you found us. To become a full member (aka Wiki Genealogist), youll need to sign the Honor Code. For a list of helpful links, please click my name and check out the links under my "Greeter" section especially the Sources links and links to my fellow greeters Debby and Maggie, who have helpful information on their profile pages also.
If you get stuck on anything and can't find an answer in WikiTree Help, you can post to the G2G forum or give me a holler.
Thank you for joining our collaborative tree!
Remember that our mission is to build a global tree with just one profile per person, so please look for duplicates before adding a profile.

We also have a naming standard here.
