[add comment] [edit] Son of Multiple Families [30 October 2008]It looks like a merge process resulted in Henry being son of multiple families-- themselves in need of merging. How best go about doing that? (Merging scares me... but I like it!) Jillaine 18:53, 29 October 2008 (EDT) I gave it a hard shove. The process is to set up a comparison by looking for matches in a search (search for duplicates) or by using a compare process available in the "more" pull-down (compare wives, compare husbands, compare parents, etc.). When you're satisfied that you're looking at a set of duplicate pages, check the appropriate boxes to indicate what you want to merge. Don't be afraid to only perform a partial merge - you don't have to do all of them in one shot. It's often easier to perform a couple of small merges where you can keep track of the differences that you're merging, rather than going with a huge merge of (up to 10 are possible in some situations) family or person pages.--Jrm03063 21:36, 29 October 2008 (EDT) |
