Hi, Could a curator please fix Private User. She has 3 parents.

Fin Aagesen Ulfeldt needs help in deleting a bad connection, he now has two fathers...

Fin Aagesen Ulfeldt

His father

Aage Stigsen Ulfeldt

His father

Stig Pedersen Ulfeldt

His father

Peder Væder Ulfeldt

If you know anything about patronymics, you see how fine it all fits together and overlapping from son to son, unfortunately, there's a lot of Scandinavians who doesn't have a clue of how this name giving tradition works, and we ends up with continuous errors in our ancestral lines. Please to all of you who's doing this errors, learn something before you act!

Fin Aagesen Ulfeldt

Could a curator please, cut off this false newly created father

Aage Nielsen Ulfeldt

Private User

Done, also disconnected him from N.N.

Thanks a lot Erica Howton !

Now I want to bring up up attention another behavior. For some time now, this tree saboteur (No Name) has been deleting a lot of confirmed and verified profiles, the way he does it follow a procedure that starts with him creating a copy, then merge them together and then disconnects the profile from its original place, as demonstrated in this example here: Tore Andersson

This person needs to be stopped!

What kind of responsibility can curator take for this sorts of action against people that obvious no longer are fit to deal with genealogy?

We user should not just pretend that it's raining, so what can we do? Doing nothing is not an option since his bad habits right now are overwhelming and affects our family tree in a very negative way?

Private User,

I have reported him for vandalism. This action also restricts his editing privileges.

Thanks, Kevin Lawrence Hanit the amount of work tracking all those deleted profiles and restoring them going to take some time, but it helps knowing that he can't ruin it immediately.

Could a curator please merge the duplicated children of https://www.geni.com/people/Rochelle-Marsh/600000004158200312

Hi curators, is there anyway to print a descendant report. From my own tree (offline) i have produced a 102 pages, one person per line report and some are in GENI, and i would like to compare to find the ones missing from Geni.

Can you PLEASE help - she has created merges and made a mess that I can not clean up - I am not sure if I can explain to her how to do it without her causing more problems to this area :-( '
