600 Errors - Location errors

  • 601, 631 and 661 "Unknown" location - Unknown is not a location. If not known field should be empty.
  • 602, 632 and 662 "Y" location - Y is not a location. I think this locations were part of GEDCOM imports (Maybe some error in GEDCOM format) and never corrected.
  • 603, 633, 663 USA used to early - USA is used before the country existed. Old name should be used.

900 Errors - empty data

I added this errors to find empty profiles. That means that profile has no relations, no birth and death data and is open or public. This was done based on Jillaine Smith request. For now there are 2 errors 901 unconnected empty public profiles and 902 unconnected empty open profiles.

Errors in May 2016

Analysis was done on data from May 1st 2016.

Explanation of error changes:

  • There is approximately 10% increase in 400 errors, because april import of marriages was not complete. That is 3200 errors.
  • There is approximately 8% increase in gender errors (203, 204, 303, 304), because in april import there was no gender for privacy level 35 and 40. That is 1500 errors.
  • Increase in persons profiles was 2% so all errors should increase for that amount. that is 4000 errors.

That should be 215000 errors, so in april 1500 errors were corrected by my estimation.

Note: Usually with one correction you can correct multiple errors, because errors repeat in different groups.

213638 Errors Total 0000-0000 0001-1499 1500-1699 1700-1799 1800-1899 1900-1999 2000-Now Now-9999

I have started putting a public comment for managers of profiles when the profile has a future birth date. Started at the bottom of the latest list, working up the stack. -NGP

I'm going through this one:

http://www.softdata.si/osebe_staro/ales/wikitree/Err_20160501/902_0000-0000.htm

And working on finding profiles to merge dead profiles with, or communicating with the profile managers (if there are any) requesting more details be added.

Section 106 looks very interesting for us Connectors. Will start to look at the most recent slot of dates 1990-1999, if that's OK.

106: 1990-1999 In progress

I will post in G2G each month as data is updated. In G2G are also discussions about errors with link to here. Today I noticed News on Blog about this. For automated message you need to ask leaders, but I think such actions are not prefered.

Given the number of possible issues identified (about 500,000), making real progress will depend on getting a lot of wikitreers engaged. Advertising the personal-tree-checker-tool on G2G is one way as was recently done, and it probably should be repeated periodically. Another is to send an automated message to all the profiles identified here with a description of the potential issue. Is that a possibility?
