Watchlist numbers?

Quick question about my watchlist. If I am a manager of a profile but I have no other information to add should I take myself off as profile manager to  let someone else that may have more info take it over? Some of these are 3 g grand aunts or cousins that I just don't have time to work on, I only wanted to get them on my tree. I work more on my direct lines. Just wondering what yall think. I only have a 113 on my watchlist but will be adding more of course as I go. Thanks for any advice on this

Hi Teresa. Provided the profiles have Open privacy (white and black padlock), it doesn't make much difference, because other people can edit anyhow.

Watchlists start to have problems when they contain about 5000 profiles, but you aren't near that point yet.

The choice is up to you.

I see you have a merge to do on Hobbs-9068 and if the other profile manager does not respond in (I think 30 days) you can do the merge your self.

As for your watch list, I had over 5200 and was getting warning pop up until I learned how to remove them so as long as your under 5000 you are ok and anyone can help on unlocked profiles that are still on your watch list. Just remember to thank them if they do.
