I know how to add a link from Find A Grave to a bio, but

Question

How do I add a Wiki Tree profile to a FG memorial?

I think I saw it somewhere, but have been unable to find out how to add WT profiles to both FG and Wikipedia.

Thank you.

Those are two different questions. I think it is frowned upon to add WikiTree to Find A Grave as it is owned by Ancestry. I think people recommend you add it when you add memorial flowers, like comments.

For Wikipedia, you can add the WikiTree ID as WikiData. It is under the tools menu on the right hand side at the top and find the Wikidata Item and click on that. Then you have to scroll aaaaaallllllll the way down because it will be near the bottom of the page, but there is a place for the WikiTree ID.

You have to create the WikiTree profile first of course. Then you can go back and put the Wikidata ID on the WikiTree profile as well. {{Wikidata|Q######}} in the sources.

I actually meant WD, not WP, so that's good.  I will save your instructions for future.  I've never left flowers on FG, but will give it a try.  I think the more backlinks, the better.
