WeRelate's Genealogy Contest!
|
This week, WeRelate starts something new! Our first WeRelate.org "Genealogy Contest" starts today and ends at midnight on Tuesday, January 31st. Please note the rules on the contest page, and keep in mind that the contest depends upon the addition of "source-based" information that is added to a particular Person Page (see Genealogy Contest Page for the complete list of contest rules and judging criteria). Beginning in February, new contests will start each week on Fridays, and will be listed in the "Did You Know" section on the WeRelate start page. Thanks to Catherine dee Auvil, who is the contest originator and is overseeing the running of the weekly contests! (learn more...) |
