Challenge of the week: Clean up GEDCOM-generated data

Question

Hi WikiTreers,

Will you join our "Data Doctor" Challenge of the week?

This week we're improving profiles whose biographies were automatically generated through GEDCOM imports. Our ancestors deserve better bios.

Here is the list of profiles that could use some TLC.

Will you join us?

If you're participating, please post here to let us know. It's nice to cheer each other on. Or post if you have any questions about how to participate.

Thanks for helping!

P.S. For more of an introduction, see "Would you like to help improve GEDCOM-created profiles?"
