Thanks for offering to help.
A couple of questions:
1) Look at Elliott-17818, my grandfather. I currently have no picture of him but I have a scanned newspaper article about his death (by suicide) which I want to have associated with his profile. What I did was probably incorrect, as it shows up as his profile photo. How should I have done this?
2) I have some scanned census pages which show information about multiple people, obviously, since they're organized by household. I would like to reference these in individual profiles. It doesn't make sense to me that I should upload multiple copies of the same document. How should I handle this?
I am pleased to welcome you to the WikiTree family, your contributions will go a long way to joining the world together.
It is best to start with the New Member How-To pages, they will save you a lot of time and frustration. Have a look at our Sources page it is also helpful.
You mentioned that you don’t know much about your family tree yet. I assume you are new to genealogy. No problem! Every genealogist is a beginner at some point.
Take your time, keep track of sources, and ask questions. Check here for tips.
I am here to answer any question you have, no matter how trivial you may think it is. There is no such thing as a silly question. Please add as much information as you can, it all helps to turn a “name” back into a person. I hope you enjoy the site as much as I do.
See you in the branches.

That is automatic privacy protection because she is living and not a member. If you want her to show and she is okay with that, then go to her profile. Click on the Privacy tab and scroll down to where it says "Add to Trusted List" add her email and send it to her. When you receive it she can click the link that will bring her to WikiTree to login and create a password. Once you add her to the Trusted List the you need to click 'Add as Manager' by her name in the privacy tab. You will also still be a manager. Once she has accepted the invite and is at least a Guest member you can change her privacy setting. I hope that helps. If you have any other questions let me know,
