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.

Hello Anton! I suggest you should not use the word UNKNOWN to fill in the Lineage field because this word will be listed as one of last names in the list of last names. We encourage users in all the localizations of Rodovid to use the question mark instead. When a person's lineage is unknown and is marked with a question mark, that person will be shown in gray color in the tree and you will be able to spot that person immediately. Cheers. --Stanley 11:14, 20 April 2007 (EEST)
