I just took on Abigail Basset Burts sons and some of the ohter children.  She did not have a profile manager so I agreed.  There is a lot of things  I am not sure how to do(lucky me love to learn). Am I obligated to "repair" them?

It was orphaned and asked for someone to take it on since it was a Grandmother I took it on but all the family has a bunch of suggestions” to fix. Some look like something I am not familiar with. Is it my responsibility to repair the others attached to this Grandmother! They have someone looking after them but have not fixed them.

You just concentrate on the profile you have adopted.  It is up to the profile managers of the other profiles to sort their profiles out.
Thanks I will!! Wasn’t sure if it was something I HAD to do!!

Thanks again Janice

I occasionally have to remind myself that I'm here as a volunteer. As a Wikitreer, you don't "have" to do anything. But what you do should be compliant with the honor code, ie. be friendly, work accurately, and cite your sources. I wish you a good time on WikiTree smiley

Hi Leif. Thank you for getting back to me. Hopefully I am fulfilling my obligations but I am new on this web page and trying to learn it all. Thank you Jan

As far as obligations you are not required to repair anything. If there is something that you can add please do.  Once you feel more comfortable here you may choose to come back and make more "fixes" but it is not a requirement.
