While the tools to add names to submit will be there it will be important to train users who are novices on how to properly document an ancestor.

Yes, there are huge opportunities for research as my family and I are constantly finding.

Especially the paragraph about not viewing the Family Tree as a source of names for ordinance work... Although my family lines include many IOUS-type ancestors, my husbands lines do not. It would be nearly impossible for my relatives to find temple names without experience in research, although plenty have been repeats. <br /><br />I don’t completely agree that the number of easily done ‘green icons’ have already almost completely disappeared because I’ve seen another view. I have been researching my husbands lines daily for over 4 years now and not only find a lot of work that needs to be done, but I leave a lot of my research available for other FS contributors as I stick closely to blood relationships and descendancy in reserving temple ordinances. <br /><br />Also considering the rate in which new data is being added to FamilySearch, I don’t imagine that completion of temple ordinances are up to speed with that growth. So, while there seems to be more green arrows in my world, my vision of FamilySearch is much aligned with yours! <br />Diane Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13009734060993413317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3793782800729950147.post-48262305005547199172016-06-19T13:01:54.142-07:002016-06-19T13:01:54.142-07:00I couldn't agree more with your concerns about...I couldn't agree more with your concerns about what Family Tree is and is not!Cathy Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461484882494138496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3793782800729950147.post-16809621763491286022016-06-18T10:49:28.013-07:002016-06-18T10:49:28.013-07:00I spent some time testing in the Beta version (wit...I spent some time testing in the Beta version (with nFS removed) of FamilySearch yesterday and when I merged a record that used to be flagged as "unable to merge at this time" IOUS; the result became dozens of more records for that person that needed to be merged. So part of your speculation is correct.Amy Archibaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15068623403901287165noreply@blogger.com
