ATTENTION Curators, please assist

It is not a bug, - you are not allowed to remove a relationship which will make the removed profile a "floater", - without any connections. Only Pro users and curators are allowed to do that, - with care.
Any examples we can help you with?

my request management icon is not working for me. i see it has changed a little since i was able to use it last month. sooo do i need to contact geni support or is there a limit?

Request management icon?
Such a thing does not exist.
Request management is however moved into a new menu item called "Manager Options".

More precisely, "Manager Options" is an item to select after clicking the "Actions" button in the upper right of the profile view.

I don't know why, but I have requested management of a couple of profiles recently and it didn't work.

It's not automatic, - the primary manager have to approve the request.

Would it be possible to get two profiles merged, my daughter apparently didn't see hers or her brothers and created new ones and they're too busy to correct them. I believe I was able to do hers but can't do my sons.

Private User It didn't go that far. No action at all and there was no manager

Roger Jacobs They are both private so I can't do it

Requesting management on profiles without any manager have not been working since they moved it into the menu. The error is reported.

Roger, - ask someone with access to try this: http://www.geni.com/merge/compare/6000000011638077430?to=6000000011...

Private User Thanks for the info.

Roger Jacobs It looks to me like they are brothers. Different names, same parents, different wives and children.

When I clicked on the white cross on the lower left of the tab it came back with the correct match Brian-Brian and Jim-Jim, thanks though.

Could someone please tell me if Private User and Private User are still members of Geni?

Thank you, Martin

Now I'll have to go and cancel all the merge requests I've sent them as quiet clearly, and along with Zoe Jeffrey, they just ain't gonna happen. Guess I'll just have to start making duplicates, again.

Brendan Swemmer Have you reported Vanessa as an abandoned tree? That might help. At least they don't have hundreds of profiles.

Good afternoon everyone. This is on my merge issues list. I see a couple of potential problems with it, perhaps a mix up of generations, and am not going to do anything about it because of the problem. Is anyone in the know about thius? and can someone who is, please make corrections in this line "Mawl"

Sally Thomas Based on birth years, it looks to me like the correct parents are John Mawle b 1488 and Christine b 1490. Is this what you think is correct?

Eldon, in this site,
http://www.geni.com/family-tree/index/6000000002043249474?resolve=6...
2 John Mawles b. 1488, d. 1561; and John Mawle b.1512, d. 1579, are listed as the fathers of John Mawle b. 1510 d. 1579. What I am worried about is that the son John Mawle that died in 1579 may be the same as the father that died in 1579. Perhaps there is nothing to it, but then again, I wonder. and I Ihave no real research on this line, so do not want to do anything with it. Wondering if someone else might have more info, I do not want to make a mistake.

Also, please, could some resolve the data conflict here?

I keep doing it over and ovedr and it never takes, never gets done.

Sally Thomas Myrna fixed John Mawles and someone resolved your data conflict.

oh, cool!! thank you very much!

ok..my mormon guy James Graham married a lady Christianna Nixon Reed and then he married his step daughter Hannah Tucker Graham her daughter. can we put a note there or do you want to wait till i get all the wives in?

Private User -- As far as viewing the tree, it shouldn't be any issue (not the first time in history!). Do you have a question about how to make that connection? (In the tree view, select the "Move" under the "More" option for one of the profiles, such as Hannah's, and then drop it on top of James' profile, selecting the spouse option from the menu that shows up.)

The Tree view will look different depending on which profile is the "focus" (e.g.: might have a '2x' to denote the same profile in two places).

Other than putting an additional note in the "About" section of each to clarify the relationships (which was not obvious to me when I read through them), if your concern is that someone might later break the relationships as being incorrect, then -- after you have all the profiles connected together properly -- you can ask a curator to make them into Master Profiles (MP) to keep them from being messed with too much.

BTW: Are you in contact with the owner of the private profiles for which you've requested merges? If you have not been able to do so (and for some time), you may just want to cancel those merge requests (unless you don't mind having them hang around with the blue dots on the profiles). As private profiles, no one can force the merge to complete -- unless the user has abandoned the tree and Geni.com folks turn them over to you or some close relative of the original manager.

just made the merges today..so they won't bother me for a while.( a couple are scott hibbards marked as living ...and he never answers me) and yup did all that with the moving them. just want a note and to make them master profiles. most the wives are there by now. and thank you

One other suggestion: Make it as easy (quick) for the curators as possible: list the profiles you want changed (as you referenced the 3 above, for example), and suggest wording to put in a "curator's note" (if any) on one or more of them.

Eldon Lester Clark
Thanks for the suggestion. I will report Private User as well as she has 15999 profiles.

I know I am a Curator, but there is a bug in the Geni code that prevents me from reporting profiles.

Can someone please report the following as a Claimed Historical Profile?

was allready done!
