Hi Wikitree community!
The reason that I have multiple profiles with LNAB "No Last Name" is because last names are not common in most of Bangladesh, especially rural areas, and I know for a fact that these relatives have no last name, only a first name.
I used "No Last Name" instead of "Unknown" in this field because when I first created these profiles, this seemed to be the best option under Wikitree Guidelines. I see now that that's not in line with the current guidelines. I don't feel comfortable using "Unknown" for these profiles since it seems inaccurate, but I am working on coming up with a good solution by learning about other projects.

Thanks for having a big heart and adopting the Orphaned Profiles. This After Adopting Orphans FAQ explains the special attention adopted profiles will sometimes need. One quick way to find the profiles you adopted is by searching your Contributions List for the word "adopted". You can find a quick link to your Contributions List in the My WikiTree dropdown menu.
Let me know if you have any questions on how to find and record sources, merge duplicates, clean up GEDCOM biographies, and interpret the Suggestions report. I'm here to help!

PS If you have any GEDCOM cleanup to do, there is a new tool that can help. You can read more about it in the WikiTree AGC FAQ.

to the top of your biography if you speak English natively and intermediate Belarusian, or you could use fr-3 to specify advanced French or ru-1 for basic Russian, etc. It really helps to know who speaks all the different languages used on WikiTree!
If there is a language you speak that is missing from our categories, I would be happy to add it.
