It's fine if you add in the various relatives - I didn't bother, because I was only looking for direct ancestry, and once you start getting into cousins, then you are soon looking at the whole world.
BTW: treat all ancestry.com info as suspect until proved otherwise. And my daughter gave up on the O'Neills, as looking for a Mary O'Neill in Ireland is like looking for a John Smith in England. The sources are incomplete and ambiguous.
With these cautions - good luck with your research!
Thanks for your advice. Having completed an upload I went carefully through and reviewed all suggestions. Many of my ancestors were located from UK Census records, birth / marriage / death records as well as original diary entries. I have also accumulated a large collection of contemporaneous material such as press cuttings, gazettes and books relating to the Whitty and Hayes families. I accept that some I added O'Neill records which were not validated and also Hidges records which again, beyond my personal knowledge were not validated. I will remove these from the tree. What I did not find were any Michael James Whitty descendants in the existing trees which you had commented on. Perhaps that is where I have mistaken how to work with Wikitree.
I will certainly NOT amend the MJW records without consulting you, but I will under separate cover send you a letter written by him to Dr R R Madden in May 1968 which has his own account of his life.

Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles! It’s very important to read and understand the Pre-1700 Profiles page. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines in the certification quiz.
Primary sources should always be added to pre-1700 profiles at the time they are created. If you don't have a source for a pre-1700 profile, it would be best to ask for help in the G2G forum before creating the profile.

Exploring the site is the best way to learn. One way to do that is to check out the drop-down menus on the top right side of your profile page. Finding a known ancestor and collaborating with the profile manager is another great way to start.
Questions? You can always use the G2G link in the Help Menu to find answers.
You mentioned that you don’t know much about your family tree yet. I assume you are new to genealogy. No problem! Every genealogist is a beginner at some point. Take your time, keep track of sources, and ask questions. Check here for tips.
