Hi WikiTreers, join in the fun! Join the G2G Integrators Challenge for October 2019! [closed]

Question

Hi Integrators Challenge Participants!

It's time for this month's Integrators Challenge. Prior months' stats will be posted soon. Here's the Challenge Tracker Results Page that has up to the minute stats.

To participate:

1. Answer here (not comment). You can use the Challenge Tracker (preferred) or list your contributions in the comments under your answer here. You only need to post once. 
2. If you opt to use the Tracker you are ready to go. 
3. If you opt to just post in this thread, list the G2G question you worked on and what you did here (answered the question, create a profile, source profile) in a comment on your answer. Number your contributions.
4. All Challenge activity should involve G2G questions from two months ago or more. If the question is unanswered try to answer it.

5. Add the URL/Webpage Address of the question used to create the profile(s) under your Answer here when a profile is created to answer a G2G question. 

Whatever question you choose, look at the information there and check to see if there is a profile on WikiTree yet. Yes? Move whatever information might be in the question to the profile, and put a link to the profile on the question in G2G so everyone is aware there is now a profile on WikiTree.

No profile? Create one (or a few if several people are mentioned in the question, comments, and answers), and do the same as above. 

These are some threads to get you started if you don't want to do some searching on your own. If you use one of these, comment on your post below with which you are working on so you aren't doubling up another's work. Everything should be sourced!

'''New: Option two for Participating in the Integrators Challenge.''' 

Click here to Create profiles using the Category: Needs Profiles Created. Selecting your Country and State.

1. Create the profile, checking to make sure the profile does not already exist.
2. Using the Tracker, click the Integrators Challenge box, click "New Profile from Needs Profiles Created (Add URL) and click Add Action.
3. Add information to the bio and add sources to improve the profile and click Integrators Challenge box and select added sources and the URL.
4. Ask in the G2G Forum if any member is interested in adopting the profile.
5. Try to connect the profile to a family/ancestor or tree already at WikiTree.\
6. If not using the Tracker, Add the URL/Webpage Address of the profile(s) used to create the new profile(s) under your Answer here when a profile is created. 

The Monthly Challenge runs from midnight the first day of your month and ends at 11:59 the last day of the month, your time.

Ask any questions you have here in the thread.

Answer 12

Hello! By accident, I credited myself with 1 integrator challenge point a few days ago for this month. So, I vowed to come back here to the monthly challenge and officially work on something. I'll use the tracker, but also thought you might be interested in what I'm working on, so here it is. It is a thread I commented on a while back where someone was comparing a profile on WT to FS, had followed some of the lines on FS back in time, and ended up with someone in the BC era. (At least one of those ridiculous profiles on FS is now actually gone.) I'm going to go through the thread and FS again to try to make sure the same mess that was found on FS was not made on WT.

Confused yet? It's complicated!

Thank you, Susan, for joining us on the challenge for October. We create profiles from question 3 months and back in the G2G Forum and also using the Category:Needs Profiles Crated.

---

Thanks for signing up Susan!!

---

You're welcome, and understood. The G2G thread I referenced qualifes, I believe. It is from November 2018 and I find it hard to believe there is not something embedded within that ideally would migrate over to positive, value added contributions to WT.

Answer 13

I will try to do some this month

Comments

Thank you, Janet, for joining in on the challenge for October.

Answer 14

I am for this month too, albeit a little late.

Comments

Welcome, Maggie, better late than never!! Thank you for joining us.

I am extending John Lennon's Maguire family as noted in this post https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/699163/john-lennon-needs-a-little-help-from-his-friends?show=699163#q699163

But not sure how to get that URL into the tracker? 

---

I figured it out.

---

Great, Maggie, I was working on sending you a screenshot on how to add the URL between the two (URL) brackets.

---

Oops. Maybe you better post that screenshot after all, David (when you have time). I am not certain if I am doing it correctly now 

---

Hi Maggie, Would you please click my name and send me a PM. The PM feature from your profile will not let me add screenshots. Thanks!

Answer 15

Please, count me in for this month.

Comments

Hi Cheryl, yes you have been counted, since your first post Oct 3rd!  You are also on our tracker too, with 4 contributions. See: https://wikitree.sdms.si/Challenges/IntegratorsChallenge/User.htm   

---

Thank you so much Dorothy. You are a sweetheart. I just read the message on my page, and didn't even check to see if I had already signed up.  Sorry for doing it twice.

Answer 16

I'm always trying to clear "Needs Profiles Created" category (probably done at least 50 this month.  Guess I'll do a few officially.

Comments

In checking the profiles I was going to create, I found I have been the only person adding profiles to the Pennsylvania maintenance category (done as I source the unsourced).  I guess you should forget my response.  These aren't profiles in my tree, but I have done work on them before (sourcing, cleaning GEDCOM junk, sometimes writing bios or trying to connect them to the tree).

---

Hi Kathy, You are welcome to create profiles from the Category:Needs profiles created for Pennsylvania. They do not need to be profiles that is connected to your tree. Click the links in the header at the top to find out how the challenge works and to add your name to the participant's list. If you have qustiona you can ask Dorothy, Pip or me.

Answer 17

Hello,

I am doing the biobuilders surnames that are colours this month. I happened to come across children with spouses who were not connected and/or needed 'integrating'? So...I might have one or two this month. I am doing it to improve the tree, not to necessarily get points. I will add the names and urls of the names that I 'integrate' by next Thursday, the 31st (before Trick or Treat). Thank you!
