I noticed that you're working on pre-1700-era profiles. This is just a reminder that certifying to work on these types of profiles means that you agree to add valid sources as outlined in the Pre-1700 Certification Quiz. In particular, online family trees like those from Family Search, Ancestry or Geni are not acceptable pre-1700 sources. Of course if those trees have acceptable sources you can use them on the WikiTree profile.
If you need help with this, our G2G Forum is a great place to start. You can get there by clicking the link on the Help menu.
Thanks!

It looks like you were just working on a couple of pre-1700 profiles with a family search family tree as the only source. If is important to have a reliable source available at the time the profile is created. If you can find a church record on Archion for these that would be great! Justus Andreas Greiffenhagen (abt.1685-1769) and Catherina Christina (Volck) Greiffenhagen (abt.1691-1756)
Thanks, Paige
It looks like you linked burial records and a baptism record on archion to the profiles, but the links won't be useful for someone without a subscription. Can you provide full citations for the records? Which parish, volume, page, image, etc? The source help page has some good examples for complete source citations, including one for a church record which you can use as an example: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources
Thanks,

Thanks self-certifying for the Pre-1700 badge! Collaboration with Pre-1700 Project members is essential for those wishing to edit Pre-1700 profiles. Collaboration is essential because those ancestors are usually shared by many descendants.
It looks like the Germany Project would be a good fit based on your branch of WikiTree. Review the project page to learn about resources and guidelines as well as how to collaborate with the project members.
Do you have any questions? Let me know. I'm happy to help! :-)
