Welcome to the US Black Heritage Project's Weekend Sprint!
Our sprints are open to all WikiTreers.
Come join the fun!
May 10-Until we finish
Goal: 2024 is the year of completion for USBH. We want to finish all the old creation sprints that we've started. Choose a spreadsheet and go for it! These are in order of which ones we want finished first.
Sprint #1 Cemetery Creation Sprint (Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia)
Sprint #2 5th USCI Soldiers
Sprint #3 1880 Western States (California, Dakotas, Montana, New Mexico remaining)
Sprint #4 6888th/Tuskegee Airmen
Sprint #5 Freedman's Cemetery, Alexandria, Virginia
Instructions Goal#1:
- Post an answer below and tell us you will be participating.
- Go to the Google spreadsheet of your choice and put your Wiki-ID next to the first person you will create a profile for. Notice some spreadsheets have more than one tab.
- Use the linked sources on the spreadsheet to create a profile for each person. Use the information from these sources to search for additional genealogical records for them (census, marriage, etc.). More sources means better information!
- All profiles of African Americans should get the {{African-American Sticker}}. Each soldier should also get a military sticker. If you don't know how to add a military sticker, please use the category [[US Black Heritage Project, Needs Military Sticker]].
- Adding family member profiles is a great bonus!
- Please add any appropriate USBH project maintenance categories so that other project members can continue improving the profiles after this weekend.
- Add the new Wiki-ID for their profile in the Wiki-ID column.
- Repeat!
