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?"

I can work on some of these. I really like the how-to videos linked for them in the table.

Just saw this post, been actively working several this week.  Seen some sad profiles that were created with only a name and birthdate, no parents nor additional information or sources.

I tried, but every profile I went to was locked by a non-responsive PM. Something needs to be done about these ... people.
