What are advantages and disadvantages to have 469897 Project Profiles in the Project Finland and Karelia ?

Hi Dimitri,
Maybe that project was created for different purpose in the first place? Would be useful to contact a curator who might be able to help you with this. Finland and Karelia project started from Karelia and has just expanded to cover the whole Finland but I suppose that the local projects are better as the information is easier to handle. Advantages are that you are able to collect relevant information there into the project site and it's also easier to find local profiles there - I think so. Would it be possible to start the work by creating some local projects and then see how it goes? And I don't know how this happens, but surely there are some instructions somewhere what to do if you want to create a project.
With kind regards
Laura

I have joined the Russia Project https://www.geni.com/projects/Russia/13009
I added some Regions and locations and 14 profiles
Later I got the message below and was surprised...

Dear Dmitry Alekseevich!
DO NOT add people profiles to projects like Russia, etc.
This project is NOT INTENDED to collect billions of profiles living in Russia
Yours faithfully, Elena
