Are there work-arounds to PREVENT merge requests? Here's an example. I am confident the PM will help in this case. Just tell me how I can fix this kind of problem without bugging anybody else with a merge.
I created the profiles for George and Abigail Kilbourne and began sourcing their children, including Joshua, born 01 Aug 1770
- Good news: Joshua’s wife, Lucy (Holt) Kilburn, was already in WikiTree (Holt-5465)
- Learning opportunity: Joshua Kilborn was already in Wiki, Kilbourn-343 was “Captain Joshua Kilborn”. I’m guessing this is a situation about “LNAB”, last name at birth.
Can I fix this WITHOUT merging? (aka is there a “Work Around”)
Work around #1: Can I remove my Joshua Kilborn as a son, and put Captain Joshua Kilborn in his place – and source it, of course.
Work around #2: If I find another child of George and Abigail, can I delete Joshua, delete the birth source info, and then populate the profile with another child?
Would someone mentor me through *gulp* other stalled merges?
