Profile Checklist

This is a checklist to help you determine if the profile that you are working on is "complete." No profile is ever 100% done, but it is nice to know that the basic foundation of a great profile is laid.

Once you have completed a profile, go to the G2G post (https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1166985) and post the Wiki-ID before starting the next one. The team that gets the most complete profiles of the week will earn the right to have its members add a sticker to their profile. The member that gets the most after four weeks gets a special winner sticker, and can pick a digital surname and style to be made for them (see examples here).
