Noticed you uploaded a GEDCOM. Here's a link to a great step-by-step of the process including screenshots that you might find helpful.
The help pages give lots of information about the process, best to start with 'Before you import a GEDCOM'.
Find instructions here for reviewing your GEDCompare Report if you want to import it into WikiTree.
