Have you seen the latest "pop-up" projects? (Jan 31)

Question

Hi everyone!

Every so often I go through our New Projects category. It's fun to see what new free-space projects members are starting up.  I thought I'd share some here to help get them connected with other members who might be interested. :) 

• Arrivals at Auschwitz -  The goal is to record all the prisoners who arrived at KL Auschwitz (concentration camp) on 12 August 1944
• Baha'i Faith - Focused on creating and improving profiles for those of the Baha'i Faith
• Connect 1900 - Focused on connecting profiles of people who were alive in or about 1900
• Gangster Genealogy - The goal is to create and work on profiles for notable organized crime figures
• Massachusetts Medical Society Presidents - Focused on creating profiles for all the presidents of the Society

Do you have a project where others can help? Share it below!

Answer 1

Hi Eowyn, that sounds an interesting thing to do. Please can you provide the full URL that you use to search for new projects?

Answer 2

I've done several dozen profiles for Old West Good Guys & Bad Guys (e.g., Butch Cassidy, Bill Hickock, the Earps), though I don't have them tagged as a project.

Michael, There's a category for these folks: Wild Wild West.  The "bad guys" used to be a part of the disbanded Black Sheep Project and there are several categories they fit in, along with Wild Wild West, also see American outlaws. 

Black Sheep Project also covered Gangsters and Mafia, Hatfields and McCoys, and several others. All the categories are still intact - check out the Black Sheep Project page for more.
