Next step: Review your GEDCOM [11 October 2010]

You're not done yet!

WeRelate is different from most family tree websites. By contributing to WeRelate you are helping to create Pando for genealogy, a free, unified family tree that combines the best information from all contributors.

Now that you have uploaded Wheeler_Lamberson_Hogue Family.ged, your next step is to review what your pages will look like, review any potential warnings, and combine (merge) people in your GEDCOM with matching people already on WeRelate. You need to review your GEDCOM before it can finish importing.

Note: if your gedcom contains many errors or multiple families, we’d ask that you resolve and correct the errors, delete this gedcom and re-submit it without the errors before merging it with families already on WeRelate. If the gedcom is very large, we’d suggest breaking it up into separate files (or families) and importing them one at a time, which makes the review and correction process easier.

Once you have finished your review and marked your GEDCOM Ready to import, one of our administrators will review your GEDCOM and finalize the import. This usually happens within 24 hours. You will receive a message here when the pages have been created.

Reviewing gedcoms [11 October 2010]

Hi, Your gedcom is in line for import. In the future, please take care with the warnings and fix any problems before marking your file ready for import. Do not update the pages for medieval people if you don't have adequate sources. WeRelate members are trying to clean up these pages as they are a mess due to so many bad gedcoms circulating on the internet. If you have access to sources, your help would be appreciated. Thanks! --Judy (jlanoux) 17:10, 11 October 2010 (EDT) (WeRelate volunteer)

my3rdtree.ged Imported Successfully [11 October 2010]

The pages from your GEDCOM have been generated successfully. You may now:

• launch the Family Tree Explorer to navigate your tree
• view your network -- If you matched families in your GEDCOM to existing families, find out to which other WeRelate users you are related.
• view related pages not in your tree -- If you matched families in your GEDCOM to existing families, find out which people you are now related to that you can add to your tree (takes awhile to display for large trees).
• view a searchable list of the pages in your tree -- The searchable list will be available about an hour after your tree has been imported.

For questions or problems, leave a message for Dallan or send an email to dallan@WeRelate.org.

Hi [11 October 2010]

Glad to see you made it. Now that you're here I'm going to start going through and adding some of the source material on the Veaches and the others, as these lineages without sources are in need of cleaning up. It's a little hard to do without anyone else posting, and I'm still uploading my own data in small chunks, particularly the different Lamberson families that aren't as yet related.

I haven't looked through what you've added, but I'm glad you've decided to come by and participate.--glamberson 18:36, 11 October 2010 (EDT)
