Thank you for adding some additional information to two of my family members' profiles. (My maternal grandfather and his uncle).
I am curious, are we related in some way? Or are you just a well-informed source contributor?
HI! I see you added a source to my great granduncles profile, MacKenzie-7659 Alexander George MacKenzie (1889 - abt. 1964) who I am DNA linked to. I have not seen this source till you added it and I thank you!
Patrick, Thank you very much for your work on expanding the Stynes/Byrne part of our tree. Hopefully with a bit more work on my part, I'll be able to get this unconnected stub of our tree connected to the main trunk.
Patrick Holland was awarded the Golden Achievement Milestone for at least one sourced profile tracked every month since you received the Sourcerers Badge in the 2023 Sourcerers Project Sourcerers' Challenge.
This is Chris from the Italy Project. As part of the annual project check-in, can you fill in the project survey? This will let us know that you are still interested in the project and which teams you'd like to participate in.
Hi! Welcome to the Italy Project! Sorry it took so long for us to sign you in. If you have any questions or comments, let me know! We have region teams if you'd be interested in joining. They're for the northwest, northeast, central, south and islands. We also have a Discord and a Google Group. If you need help, let me know!
Pre-1700 ancestors can be shared by many descendants, so collaboration is essential. You can learn more about joining the community in How To #3 and in the Project FAQ.
The England may fit your current research focus. If not, use the Pre-1700 Projects list to find other possibilities. Review the project page to learn about resources and guidelines as well as how to collaborate with the project members.
Please take your time. Speed is less important than accuracy here. Add at least one source to each profile before you leave it.
Remember to cite reliable sources in pre-1700 profiles you manage, or edit. (See: Pre-1700 Reliable Sources).
Have questions? Ask in the comments section of my profile.
This is a courtesy e-mail to see how things are going. Are you enjoying WikiTree so far? Have the tips in the New Member How-Tos been helpful?
Please do let me know if you have any questions about how WikiTree works, no matter how small. My rule of thumb when I started was to search for an answer for five minutes, then reach out to my Greeters, and then resume searching. I might have found the answer before they got back with me but they sometimes offered a different way of doing the same thing which was easier. We are always here to help.

P.S. Did you discover that the tags on your profile are clickable links to a page of other people who have that tag? They also control the information which is included in the activity reports which you receive from WikiTree. You can add more, up to 20 total, or delete some if you are receiving irrelevant information.
P.P.S. We have a research tool that makes finding reliable sources easier. I use it all the time and it helps me remember different places to check. To give it a try, go to the Family Tree & Tools tab; select Genealogy Research, scroll down near the bottom of that list, and select Research with RootsSearch (use your WikiTree email & password). There are over 20 websites to access from there. You can read more about the tool in the RootsSearch FAQ.
One of our mentors created a tutorial for the GEDCOMpare process that others found very helpful. I hope that you will too.

May i suggest amending your tags so you have one tag for each name you are researching and the location
If you create separate tags for your surnames, the tags become clickable links to pages of others who want to collaborate about that surname. With the surnames combined in a tag, that isn't possible. This link may help you Tags
Your Wiki Genealogy Feed will show the activity connected to the surnames and places relating to your tags.
