My research

I started researching my family tree at the beginning of 2014. You can see my progress at http://familytree.derekjwhitten.id.au

In May 2016 I imported a GEDCOM file into Wikitree in order to contribute my research to the broader tree and hopefully find some new connections and researchers who are also researching my family. I'm in the process of working through the imported profiles to clean up their biographies.

Good morning, Team Australia! The Source-a-Thon is almost upon us!

If you haven't yet checked the team thread in the G2G forum, please do so, as there are now official instructions for the event.

In brief:

1. Use your answer post to record your Source-a-Thon count.

2. Number your contributions, so we can easily determine how many profiles the entire team has sourced.

And, most importantly, do the best you can and have fun!

Source-a-Thon starts at 2pm on the east coast, 1.30pm in the centre, and 12 noon in the west. For those joining us in NZ, I believe it will be 5pm for you.

Thanks for joining us and happy sourcing!

Vicky

Hello,

Thank you for signing the Honor code. Collaboration, accurate information and good sources are the basis for a great WikiTree.

Hi,

Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, there are a few more features you may find useful.

Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards, including some tips on writing biographies.

If you need to describe an event, an heirloom or a location relevant to your research, you may like to learn about Free Space Profiles.

Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask via my profile page.

Hi Derek. Welcome to WikiTree! It's always great to have another Whitten onboard. Since you're experienced with Webtrees I bet you have a lot to offer our community.

Thank you for volunteering to help grow our World Wide Family Tree. You are now a member of the WikiTree community.

Please note we are trying to build one collaborative tree which means one profile per person. It is important to ensure no duplicates are entered as you add profiles to WikiTree.

If you need any help getting started check out the Help section or head over to the G2G forum. You might also want to check out the introductory WikiTree video that a member created.

Our Mentor Team are a friendly bunch of volunteers who will be glad to help with specific problems if you have any.

Good luck growing your branches, and thanks for offering to help with our shared tree :)

Hi Derek, Your profile page is distorted due to one of the below comments. If you delete them it will eliminate the culprit.

I've recently started researching my family tree. I have been collating my information in my own installation of Webtrees, but came across Wikitree last week.

After uploading my GED Com file I'd like to start contributing to Wikitree to help connect other people with the ancestors I have uncovered, and also further my own family research by linking my family into the global tree.
