NOTES FOR BEGINNERS:
  • Single or empty records are not allowed here. Please delete such a record by pressing the delete tab or mark it for deletion using the template: {{delete|reason}}
  • Clan field - it's the surname in singular if it doesn't change by gender (English or Western European languages, for instance). If the name is in a language, such as Russian or Ukranian, where it depends on sex, put it in the plural (for ex., Petrov/Petrova - Petrovs)
  • Place field must have each administrative unit separated by commas (for ex., London, England, UK)
  • Upload photos via special pages. They could be used in different places
  • If you record was changed check whether it was correction or vandalism. If vandalism - immediately tell us about it.


[edit] About clan/lineage

Hello Alamnirvana!

How are you?

I really don't understand how you want to use "lineage" field. When you write something there, it creates a link to a page gathering all peoples sharing the same lineage. When this page is not created, it's (of course) a red link.

So, you often write something there, which is used for only one person, and sometimes only for brothers and sisters. This does not work…

I think it's better then to write all these names in "First name at birth" field, or in "Other last names". This will avoid to create useless "Lineage:" pages! --Christophe Tesson - talk. 10:29, 10 October 2016 (EEST)
