ATTENTION Curators, please assist

Michael Thomas Brown thanks for bringing that question up here is how i handled mine.. Private

I just did a search for Samuel Harding, with partner Margaret. It said no results. Then I did a search for Margaret Van Winkle & looked at each entry. There is Samuel Harding. So, something appears to be messed up. Please help.

You're welcome cousin Michael.

Faustine Darsey

I just replicated your results. What's particularly interesting is that if I search for Margaret Van Winkle with either "Samuel" or "Harding" in the partner field, search finds Samuel Harding

This makes me think it's an index "miss" for this profile or a specific group of profiles.

I will open a bug report on the Help platform and post back with that link, so you can "follow" it and be notified of updates / results from Geni customer support.

Private User you might want to contact the profile manager about the profile?

Private User,

Polak/Dreese are now Gretha's parents. I added a link & info to her 'about me'

Please merge duplicate profile for Antoinette Hayes Private (duplicate Unknown Profile)

Private User

Done.

Jerrold, are you talking about Nellie C Fogarty ?

if you enter your parents into the tree as part of your own private family tree, and ask for a merge of your father with Nellie's son, you will be family-linked to Nellie, and can edit the profile freely.

Remember to always record where your information comes from!

also, do contact Dana who is the adminstrator of Nellie's profile.

Please merge Unknown Profile (duplicate Emile Roy)

Private User Profiles are in different trees. Request to merge sent. Both managers are active so it might happen.

Curator please resolve/merge duplicate for Mossie Rubin. Thank you. There is also a duplicate for his brother Bert Rubin

Private User I believe that was already done. If there's another duplicate, please provide a link.

Hello again - I had 2 questions.

My father's first cousin's ex-husband and the exes sister appear to be primary managers for profiles in my family that have nothing to do with them. I was wondering if it were possible to make me (my father uses Geni passively and i am inherinting his research anyway at some point he keeps telling me) the primary manager.

I have also been cleaning up the "abandoned tree's" around my tree and was wondering if there was an easier way to do it rather that just looking through my collaborators, followers, and those I am following.

Ray... fixed..

Hi
Can anyone find out who was the father of this profile before the changed took place?
Yehuda Leib (Leiba) Rubashov

Is it a bag that one can not see this change?

Er det mulig å få hjelp til å kjøre noen sammenslåinger her http://www.geni.com/merge/compare/6000000025246342171?fsession_id=1... Det ser ut som det er mange som har ventet lenge i dette området.

Kjell Odding
Dubbletterna finns i ett separat träd med en inaktiv användare. Med nuvarande regler för Geni kommer dessa sammanslagningar aldrig att slutföras.

@Bo-Arne Østborg
Da er vel dette Zombier som må elimineres på noe vis? Kan de merkes, stenges eller noe slik at vi slipper å prøve på sammenslåing?

Steve Jaron

Let me try your questions.

1) primary manager. You could raise a case on the https://www.geni.com/sso/zendesk/login?return_to=http%3A%2F%2Fhelp.... explaining the family situation to Geni Customer Support & see if there's anything they can do to reshuffle the managers so you receive messages

2) cleaning up - in profile view, actions menu (drop down) view nearby merge issues. That is a good way to check & resolve tree conflicts, abandoned trees, outstanding merge requests, data conflicts for a grouping & fairly quickly.

Sorry - a good link to submit a ticket is http://help.geni.com/requests/new

I would have to test & see if the previous parent would show

Erica
I found out from the person who did the change that the name was changed (Hebrew added) but there is no way (view) to see what it was before and that is also in other profiles where parents were changed or may be only some changes in the name itself ???

For name changes you can see the change log:

Overview > history > Facts > Compare

Erica
The problem is/was that there is a note in revision that the parents of this profile was changed and I wanted to know who was it before the change.

Yes i follow. I don't think it shows in revisions but I'm not sure without testing.

Thanks, Erica. I didn't know about that function to compare facts.

Isaak Abraham van Zwanenberg seems to be a claimed profile of someone who died in 1898

Attempt to report gives "This profile has already been reported."

No indication of when it was reported, or on what basis.

Is there anything to be done other than wait to see if Geni CS does something about it?
