Hi WikiTreers,
Will you join our GEDImprove (GEDI) Challenge this month?
For this challenge, improve profiles created from old GEDCOM imports, using a "whole profile approach" described on the GEDI Space Page. From the spreadsheet pick a GEDCOM, click on the GEDCOM to open the tab, select a profile, then update the spreadsheet to note that you are working on the profile. When you finish the profile, return to the spreadsheet and update the status for that profile.
There is no individual challenge scoring, but we are tracking our collaborative effort for the month, and showing our progress on individual GEDCOM. You will gain contributions, and we are collectively improving the tree.
Last month there were 778 profiles improved with 425 of those via GEDI.
If you want to work as teams, urge each other on, or just chat, join us on the gedi-challenge channel on Discord.
You are welcome to post here to let us know if you are participating, but it's not required.
Post here, or ask on Discord, if you have any questions!
News:
* There were 7540 profiles improved via GEDI during 2022.
* The Bates_Robert_N.GED GEDCOM has been added to the GEDI list. These are mostly Post-1700 profiles in Massachusetts and Maine. Can we improve the remaining 130 profiles this month?
* There are several browser extensions that can help you improve GEDCOM imported profiles. The WikiTree Sourcer extension will help you find sources and generated biography text using those sources. Both AGC and Bio Check are in the WikiTree Browser Extension. Use AGC to clean the GEDCOM and Bio Check the profile by Saving a Draft.
