Surname Export with dates not concatenated

Question

As there seems to be no way to create a GEDCOM of Surnames or Locations, is there a way to get a list of profiles in my watchlist that lists birth dates and death dates fields individually rather than the concatenated string with locations?

 

I would like to be able to create an ASCII file of this information to import to Ancestry so that I can see if any of the records I am entering might have matches there.

Answer 1

You can get a list from the API:

https://apps.wikitree.com/api.php?action=getWatchlist&fields=Name,BirthDate,DeathDate,BirthLocation,DeathLocation&getPerson=1&getSpace=0

This looks like what I want. Where can I find more information about using the API?

Never mind.. Thanks I found it.

Regarding a friend has gotten me started on a script for the results of the API.

It will turn my watchlist into a GEDCOM if anyone is interested let me know and I will send you a copy of the script.

Answer 2

Maybe a To-Do list might help? You start to create it the same way you create a freespace page.

I recently discovered the to-do list where I can add from my watchlist and absolutely LOVE it!!  I have been going through my whole list and making sure I have cleaned up each and every gedcom!
