Hi!

I’d like advice on what to do with multiple instances of: = GEDCOM Source =. See this profile for a prime example: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Fortson-36

Thanks! Laura

Hi, Laura

That is not an appropriate heading, and most of the entries are gedcom leftovers or refer to offline "sources" or intertwined with =gedcom source= headings- These need to be checked thoroughly, and most of those headings and sections on the example profile could be removed in their entirety. That is a gedcom mess!

Thank you for bringing this up. Sheryl

They are indeed a mess! I’ll skip them and just correct the simple ones.

You’re welcome! Laura

There is a 40 character limit on the header text. Exceeding that length will result in a 822 on the leading ='s and a 823 on the trailing ='s.

When and where was this 40 character limit set, please?
