Connect-a-Thon
The next Connect-a-Thon is from 12-15 April 2024. To register keep an eye out for the Registration question on the G2G. Help:Connect-a-Thon has a lot of information about the Connect-a-Thon.
There are lots of ways that you can contribute profiles during the Connect-a-Thon. Some ideas are:
- Build your own family. You can also add to your CC7 Count. Ways to do that are: 1. Create a personal category to add profiles in your tree that need relatives added or 2. Click on the Connections link on your profile to find profiles with missing relatives.
- Work on creating profiles from Category:Australia,_Needs_Profiles_Created. There are also links on the category page for profiles in each state.
- Work on connecting Unconnected profiles. You can find these at Australia Unconnected Profiles. If you scroll down, you can also find lists for Unconnected profiles of people born in the various Colonies, and States and Territories.
- Connect Notables, or Convicts, or any other group, using a text search on WikiTree+, eg unconnected+convicts, Unconnected Anzacs, World War 1, unconnected+Australia+Notables
- Pick a Soldier, Plant a Tree - build the trees of soldiers in this category: Category: Australia, Pick a Soldier, Plant a Tree, Needs Profiles Created
Challenge & 'Thon Teams
The following teams include a focus on Australian genealogy. You don't need to be an Australia Project member to join any of these teams.
Each of the teams has a specific channel on Discord for chatting during the challenge. You need to join the WikiTree Discord Server first - see Help:Discord for more information about how to do this. Usually you'll be added to the Discord channel for the team that you've joined in the lead up to the Challenge. If you don't have access you can ask your Team Captain or Gillian to arrange for you to be added.
You are very welcome to join up to any of the teams listed on this page - Help:Connect-a-Thon, or to change to another team for next Challenge, if you'd like to try something different or focus in a different area.
