Reliable sources for Québécois project need to be better applied

Question

The following is the page listing reliable sources for Québécois project.  Some are specifically named as NOT reliable, yet I am seeing them being used as pre-1700 sources quite frequently.  Please review these, there are explanations on why some are not considered reliable.  Thank you.

Merci .. 

Answer 1

Thanks for the reminder Danielle. I'll let my fellow Rangers know.

Answer 2

I agree with the assessments for the sources I use listed there. I don't see the Migrations online website listed, which often has images of original records and should be included.

Comments

that one is included in Filles du roi list of sources, trying to keep things separate, and it is rather specialized.

Answer 3

Merci. This is helpful for my research.

Answer 4

May I suggest adding a Maintenance Category to tag profiles with unreliable sources? I stumbled upon some profiles but don't have the time to correct them right away and I still have to figure out how the site works to pin them. 

Right now, I feel I am mastering tab management in Chrome

hi Jonathan, the category used for this is Quebecois Project unsourced

Answer 5

Bonjour Danielle,

What should we do with profiles created with only "nos origines" as a "source", no other sources to the profiles?

I'm asking because someone is creating s mountain of profiles with only that "source".

Comments

message them with the link to reliable sources page is the first step, we can't be monitoring what everybody does.  Mission impossible that.

Answer 6

Bonjour Danielle,

I think this is an important matter for the accuracy of the Tree. I suggest to pin this space page to the Project Québécois Welcome page as "Guidelines for Reliable Sources".

What do you think?

Comments

good idea Jonathan, been meaning to do just that, keep forgetting.  Going to do it right now.  

Answer 7

Thanks for the reminder, Dani! =D I know I've used Nos Origines before. I'll try to stop.
