Hello all

I just have recently started working on my English relatives, and  am finding, i have  duplicates of several profiles, enough that i need to cancel alot of profiles and start over, where i have wrong profile  here and there, i do not know how i did this but  i have.   How do i deleate profiles that i have to where i can start over on my Calvert family?  Im looking at possibily of about 25  profiles.  Ive been adding  children, but up comes the same profile  done by me,  geeze  what  a mess i have

 

My Calvert family starts : with my grandmother Calvert-1890

We don't delete profiles. If you discover that you've created duplicates, the duplicate profiles can (and should) be merged. And if you've made data errors, they can be corrected.

Can you give an example of a profile you created that you think is messed up? That would make it easier to advise you on how to handle the situation.

Hi Debbie!  

I just proposed merges for some of your Culvert duplicates.  Once those are combined, it should look a little less messy.  :)

Hi Deborah, Here a WikiTree there is no option to delete profiles and start over. You merge the two duplicate profiles into one single profile.

Click here for the Help Page on Merging.

Click here for the Help Page on Duplicates, What are duplicates and why are they a problem?
