I was born in 2004 in Perth, Western Australia, Australia. I am currently working at a public library and am part-way through a Diploma of Library and Information Services. I love all things library, information, cultural heritage, and GLAMR (galleries, libraries, archives, museums).

I've had an interest in history and genealogy for a while now, and started researching my ancestry in 2017 when I was 12 years old. Since then, I have made great strides in learning about my ancestors and how to record information about them.

I am gradually transferring my family tree (which primarily exists on FindMyPast, but I also have a smaller less frequently updated presence on FamilySearch and Geni) on to WikiTree. It's going to take me a while to get all the information transferred over, especially as I'd like to do it thoughtfully with well-written biographies (hopefully), and I keep finding mistakes that need to be fixed as I sift through everything. But I will get there! :)

As of December 2023, I have not been on WikiTree for a while, owing to getting a new job in the mid-year and being a bit busy settling in to that. So if you have tried to interact with me this year and not had a reponse, it is worth trying again now as I'm slowly getting back into the fold.

Hi Oscar,

We're contacting you for the annual Australia Project membership checkin. We really appreciate your involvement in the Project in the last year. Thank you so much for all your help to improve Australian profiles on WikiTree.

Please could you reply to this message, or send me a private message to let us know if you'd like to stay on in the Project, and if you'd like to make any changes to the teams that you belong to. The teams are listed on Australia Project Teams.

If you've moved on to other things for the moment, that's absolutely fine. We'd appreciate if you'd let us know so that we can remove you from the membership list.

Over the past year, Australia Project members have been more active on Discord. We're finding it a fun way to communicate as a project. If you're not on Discord yet, here's some information - Help:Discord. If you are already on the WikiTree Discord server, let us know, and we can send you an invite link to the dedicated Australia Project server (WikiAustralia) where all our chat channels are located. It's a great way to communicate with other members on your project team/s, or for any general questions.

We're always happy to receive any ideas or suggestions that you have to make our project even better.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi Ian,

I'm happy with my current project teams, Devon and OT. I'm also on considering moving into the Managed Profiles Team. I've been struggling with some technical issues lately (haven't been able to get my laptop to work) so I haven't been on WikiTree in a while, and as such have been unable to prioritise any teams.

No feedback at this time. The project is doing fabulously!

Thanks,

Oscar

Thanks Oscar! Technical problems can be frustrating -- I hope you get them sorted out soon. Thanks again for being part of the England Project!

It's time for the One Place Studies Project Check-In!

We've put together a survey for you to fill out to check in with you, it will only take a moment as there are only a few questions. Filling out the survey lets us know you are still interested in coordinating your study and provides an opportunity for you to share any suggestions you may have for the project.

If you have decided to step away from your study, please reply to this comment to that effect.

Hi Azure,

Just completed the form :) I haven't been very active with my study for a while but I'm definitely still interested in staying with the Project. I plan to bet back into it very soon. Thanks for all that you do for the project and thanks for checking in!

Hi Oscar,

It’s time for our annual Ireland Project check-in! Please respond within the next two weeks to let me know:

  • If you are happy with the team you’re on or if you’d like to make a change. It is now required that all members with an Ireland project badge work on at least one of the project’s team(s), so if you’ve not yet signed up please do so in your reply to this check-in.
  • What you think the project is doing well, and what (if any) changes you would like to see us make? Are there any teams you would like to become more active in?
  • Would you be interested in helping to work on an Ireland Project newsletter?
  • Please give us some feedback on the use of google group and discord. Do you use one or both of these? If you don’t use either of them, what is the best way for us to ensure you receive project communications? If you would like to join us on either one, just let us know in your response and we will get you signed up.

Please respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree. If we don’t hear from you within two weeks, we will assume you are no longer interested in participating in the Ireland Project, and your badge will be removed. If you wish to reapply for membership later, we will be happy to have you back. Many thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you!

Sincerely,

Jen Hutton, on behalf of the Ireland Project

Hi Jen. Thanks for checking in. I'm afraid I haven't done much with the Ireland Project. I've got a lot on my plate at the moment with the English Project + general life stuff, so I think for now I'd like to have my Ireland Project badge removed. But I do want to return at some point in the future :)

Hello Mike,

Apologies for the delay in replying.

I've been working on the Orphan Trail for the past while, and have thoroughly enjoyed it. As I've got exams coming up, I've had to take a short break from WikiTree and OT activity, but I plan to jump back in once that's all over.

No feedback. I've had a really great experience so far :)

Thank you Oscar. Good luck with the exams!

Hi Oscar, welcome to the Australia Project. We are really delighted you have joined us. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. Gillian, co-Leader, Australia Project.
posted by Gillian Thomas
Hi Oscar you can work on the profile you chose as it has a manager who is one of the Orphan Trail team. We are trialling a new system to ensure all trailers don't get someone else working on their profile without one of the team being aware. If you get others working on it both Heather and I are in a position to intervene until you get a Trailblazer assigned.

Hello Oscar,

Thanks for self-certifying for the Pre-1700 badge! Collaboration with Pre-1700 Project members is essential for those wishing to edit Pre-1700 profiles. Collaboration is essential because those ancestors are usually shared by many descendants.

It looks like the England Project would be a good fit based on your branch of WikiTree. Review the project page to learn about resources and guidelines as well as how to collaborate with the project members.

Do you have any questions? Let me know. I'm happy to help! :-)

Remember to cite reliable sources in pre-1700 profiles that you manage or edit. (See: Pre-1700 Reliable Sources).

Ginny~ Pre-1700 Greeter

Thank you! As I've only recently got started on transferring my family tree on to the WikiTree platform, I don't think I'll get onto my pre-1700s ancestors any time soon, but I thought I'd take the opportunity to preemptively get the badge and start learning about how to treat pre-1700s profiles :) As per your suggestion, I have requested to join the England project. No questions, and thanks for your comment!
posted by Oscar Evans
Hi Oscar, welcome to WikiTree! I'm part of the Devon Team in the England Project here, so you might see me working on some of the Devon profiles that you manage. Do give me a shout if you have any questions etc. I'm here to help in any way I can. Olivia :-)

Hello Olivia. Thanks for your help. I'm currently working on adding my mum's side of the family tree on WikiTree, so I won't get around to my Devon ancestors (dad's side) for a while so all the help I can get on that is appreciated :) My only question would be how I would get involved in the Devon Team after joining the England Project and if there are any requirements to join? Apologies for my late reply. Thanks!

Hi Oscar, lovely to hear from you. Details about the England Project can be found here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:England and if you'd like to sign up you can do so by answering this question here: https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1161852/do-you-want-to-become-an-england-project-member-in-2021. New members of the England Project start on an Orphan Trail which is a fun way to get used to working on English profiles. If you're used to working with English documents you can fly through it and if you're new to it all you can take your time. After the trail you'll be able to join the Devon Team, and any other team(s) you are interested in. The project has over 300 active members and is a fantastic community of friendly, supportive and knowledgeable people. It would be great to have you on board. Olivia :-)

Hi Oscar,

This is a courtesy e-mail to see how things are going. Are you enjoying WikiTree so far? Have the tips in the New Member How-Tos been helpful?

Please do let me know if you have any questions about how WikiTree works, no matter how small. My rule of thumb when I started was to search for an answer for five minutes, then reach out to my Greeters, and then resume searching. I might have found the answer before they got back to me but they sometimes offered a different way of doing the same thing which was easier.

You can reach me by using the reply link for this comment or send a private message from my profile by clicking my name. See you in the branches,
