In a wiki environment, you can collaborate and come up with the best research, not have to rely upon someone being willing to correct something. ~~ AmyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8641680.post-64414929667389112242011-02-19T05:51:50.373-05:002011-02-19T05:51:50.373-05:00Ancestry is great, but it is disconcerting to find...Ancestry is great, but it is disconcerting to find your own records quoted as the sole source of many other users records. It is also disconcerting to follow a hint and find that there is no factual or cited basis for the hint.<br />All Ancestry trees can and should be is a guide for research. More than 90% of users fail to document their sources but it doesn't follow that they are wrong. twigdusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07573364226293073573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8641680.post-53391021959839840412011-02-18T21:19:51.335-05:002011-02-18T21:19:51.335-05:00Greta, you got it!

But at the same time, I was pleased that I was right originally and that I was able to find the proof. Because in the end it is the truth that's important - it doesn't matter if we are right or wrong as we make the journey. We just need to keep striving for the truth.Olive Tree Genealogyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02381110998759242462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8641680.post-64012062281034314692011-02-18T21:15:26.405-05:002011-02-18T21:15:26.405-05:00Ha - I think I actually understand your sadness - ...Ha - I think I actually understand your sadness - having a whole new line to research is so much fun!

I see so many trees on Ancestry that just use each other as sources, I'm often hesitant to even look at them. If I can't source it, it didn't happen.
