WikiTree's News from the Tree
Answered: What do you think of this profile page redesign draft?
There is a lot to be positive about the layout and design. My initial constructive criticism is the large blank area underneath the Bio portrait. Could the writing either extend underneath the portrait or the area be used for further pictures? It seems a waste of space to have this area blank.Answered: Help with connections for Israel Morgan Boone?
I don’t have time to help. But I have worked on his maternal grandfather Edward Morgan’s profile recently, and the family group needs a lot of work.
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Morgan-582
For instance, there is the comment I left on Edward’s profile with a link to a G2G post about deconflating one of the attached sons, “James Edward Morgan”. And it appears I never finished that up, although I should be able to in the next few days.
Then, the attachment of General Daniel Morgan as a son to James Edward Morgan, so grandson of Edward Morgan, is apparently a hornet’s nest going back many years. My opinion right now is that he probably needs to be detached from parents altogether.
Other’s of Edward’s children are problematic as well. This is a pretty significant project. To do it right will take quite a bit of time and energy.
