As you have been a member of WikiTree for a few weeks now, I thought I would check in to see how you are getting on with the site.
Has the New Member How-To been helpful, or left you with any questions?
These pages may help you with Sources and Adding Sources on WikiTree. The RootSearch tool on every profile is very helpful, you login with the same login as your WikiTree login.

PS Have you noticed that you can click on Tags to see others interested in that surname, or location?
The GEDCOM will not automatically populate your tree, it generates a GEDCOMpare report which you work through either accepting or rejecting suggested matches. Once you have done this the data from your file will be filled in on the add profile screen so that you can review and make adjustments before saving
One of our mentors created a tutorial for the GEDCOMpare process that I found very helpful. I hope that you will too.
