This week we have your last stop on the guided tour. Hopefully, you're feeling like a WikiTree pro! If not, you can always revisit the tour stops via the comment boxes on the right side of your profile.
You've covered a lot of ground the past few weeks. Today, we want to give you just a few more tools that can take you even deeper into the WikiTree forest without getting lost: How to Dig a Little Deeper.
You may have been hard at work adding family members and getting connected to those that are already here. You probably have at least a few profiles that you manage now. So, this week we're going to look at how to work with your Watchlist: How to Manage Your Watchlist.
You have been here for a while 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.

I have completed the merge. Albrecht-912 is now the profile.
You will need to edit the profile an add Albright as the current last name if appropriate.
It is quite a complicated profile, so if you need any assistance contact me by email [email address removed]
Hello Don, that's great that you are so excited about the Coulters but you should suggest alternative information in comments instead of putting copyrighted text into a biography. A link would be enough.
I don't know what to tell you but more research is needed as her children's names suggest that she is of that family. That Elizabeth wasn't mentioned in a 1975 genealogy book does not exclude her from the family.
Donald, you are now a confirmed member of WikiTree. As we've said, WikiTree is quite different from other genealogy sites. So, we've put together a guided tour to help you learn how to use it. Your first stop is How to Start Climbing Our Tree. Next week, you'll get another message with your next stop on the guided tour.

What is the correct Last Name at Birth for the proposed merge Albrecht-912 and Albright-270
I don't know what to tell you but more research is needed as her children's names suggest that she is of that family. That Elizabeth wasn't mentioned in a 1975 genealogy book does not exclude her from the family.
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!
Our G2G forum is a great way to get to know our community! Join the fun with our Question of the Week: What traits do you see being passed through your family?
Tomorrow, you'll hear from a Mentor who will check in to see how you're doing and answer any questions you might have.
Thanks for becoming part of our shared WikiTree!
