Use this checklist to track your progress with WikiTree’s “15 for 15” event in 2023, the year that WikiTree turns 15. More details and tips on how to complete each of these missions can be found HERE. The goal over the course of the year is to complete 15 of the missions. Participants who reach that milestone will receive a "15 For 15" sticker they can add to their profile to show off their accomplishment.

BONUS: For participants wanting to go beyond 15, there are also milestone stickers for “30 For 15” and “45 For 15”, for completing 30 and 45 missions respectively.

Good luck and have fun!

I just participated in an SSS challenge over the weekend of 1JUL23. Is there a way I can generate a report on the profiles I sourced so I can start filling in my 15 for 15 list?
posted by [Living Brunson]
Hi Pat--I think the simplest way might be to just look at the applicable dates on your contribution list and compile the profile list from that. To find your contribution list, look just to the right of your photo at the top of your profile. I hope you had fun sourcing for the challenge!

Thanks Betsy! I had such a blast that I did it again! LOL! I want to thank you for this WONDERFUL tracker that you made. Now I have a silly question. I made that list like you suggested & populated it; now how do I find the that page that I made again?

Hi Pat--I have a new and improved way for you to see what profiles you created over a specific set of days! It starts the same: go to your Contributions. Then select "Watchlist" from the menu going across the top. The new page will say "Family Activity Feed". Then click on "Only Profile Creation" and it will give you your list of created profiles. Sorry for my slow response, although the silver lining is that I just got this tip from Greg Clarke this morning. If I had replied before today, I wouldn't have had the tip to pass along! Let me know if it works for you.

How are we supposed to share a shareable Tree on social media if it is now longer an option? It is one of my 15/15 goals, but I do not know what to do.
Hi Benette,

On any profile, look under the menu that's titled with the profile ID. In that menu, you'll see an option to "Share to Facebook". When you click on that, it will take you to a new page with that person's family tree and step by step instructions about how to put it on Facebook.

You might find this video by Azure Robinson to be very helpful: https://youtu.be/Ou0f-yYmhx0

Let me know if I can help further.

Cheers, Betsy Ko

I don't see a link for "David Randall’s Checklist" that is mentioned as one of the missions.

Thanks

Newbie here! Do I choose 15 of these missions and then I have to complete them from January until December 2023?
Hello Benette--You're exactly right. Hopefully there are 15 missions on the list that tickle your fancy and then you have all of 2023 to accomplish them. Have fun!

Thank you so much for this Betsy! It got me organized!! https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Bob_Land%27s_15_for_15_Challenge_Progress

You're welcome, Bob. Have fun with the 15 for 15 challenge!

Hi Patti--You have to create your own Free Space Space. Under the menus at the top right, use the "Add" menu and then "New Thing". You can title it whatever you want. Best to do this in a separate tab or window so that you can still have my Mission Tracker open elsewhere. Now go back to mine and copy all of the text starting with One and Done Missions. Go back to your page which should still be in edit mode. Paste all that text and save. It should come out looking pretty after you exit edit mode. If you want a video demonstration of this, refer to the video of last Saturday's livecast at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6K5gmzJlbtQ. I start talking about Free Space Pages generally at the 43' mark and then Greg did a live demo of creating his own mission tracker FSP at the 53' mark. I hope that helps!
