Québec, Yamaska, all hands required to connect these profiles

Question

A member went around and photographed the headstones in Saint-Michel d'Yamaska cemetery a few years back, and created profiles for the people, based on these gravestones.

BUT, most of them have no other source, nor are they connected to anybody except spouses or parent in certain instances (same gravestone).  There are 187 profiles in the Category for St-Michel d'Yamaska cemetery in need of some TLC and connection / sourcing etc.

Volunteers needed for this rather large task.

Answer 1

Would it help to have them show Unsourced, so that they will show up on the Unsourced list?  I can do that for you fairly fast.
{{
Unsourced
}}

Comments

hi Sherry, they are not technically unsourced, they bear the photos of the gravestones on them.  They just need more sources and expansion / connection ...

---

OK, then I will stop.
Two have sources now.

Answer 2

I will try and help once the Thon is over.

Comments

Thanks Liza, appreciate it.

---

Is there any way to add a column to indicated if/when they are connected?

I have connected Adjutor Arel & his wife Sara Theroux, plus his brother Albert Arel & his wife Louise Theroux, plus Albert’s son Romauld.

hi Liza, don't really want to mess with her page, but if you go on the category page itself, under the number of profiles it shows there is an option to get ''unconnected'' profiles, with added option of showing them as a table.  Mind you, this function has a delay of around a day most times to update.

---

All of the Arel’s are now connected.

---

Odilard Chandonnet & his wife will be connected once a merge goes through.

---

hi Liza, nice going there cousin!  There is one Arel still loose, Adrienne (Arel) Salvas.  Got the earliest Arel in the chain connected to pre-existing parents in our tree so they are now indeed connected.

Answer 3

Is there a way to pull a WT + report for suggestions for this cemetery (category)?

might help if we knew if there were any 106, 585, or 591-593 suggestions for these profiles.

Comments

Not sure I follow what you are saying.  The category is linked above, and the profiles are all categorized with it that need attention.  Don't know what those numbers stand for in your ''suggestions'' list.

---

Danielle, the numbers are WikiTree+ and Data Doctor error codes.

---

I know that, but just giving numbers here is totally useless, I don't use DBE codes, I just fix what comes up.  A number communicates exactly nothing in context.

Answer 4

I have created a Google spreadsheet for this project to keep track of whether they have other sources and if they are connected. I have added the link just before the first table on the FSP. It will take me awhile to go through each profile and enter the data (ID, sourced, connected) but at least it will let us know what is left to work on.

Comments

oops, Google spreadsheet requires access permission to look at it.

---

Oops, sorry. It’s my first time creating one.

I’ve changed it to open access.

---

thanks, that works nicely now, still a long way to go but this contains lots of data to work with.  Nice job.  

---

Thanks. I come back to work on a few of these profiles every now and then so I wanted a way to keep track of progress. I had asked for an additional column or two added to the existing tables but that never happened so I just copied  them and added ID, Sourced & Connected.
