Wikipedia and genealogy
As a certified genealogist, while I personally admire the passion with which you are involved in documenting your ancestry and that of associated surnames, Wikipedia is not the place for genealogical entries. Please review WP:NOTGENEALOGY. Unfortunately, I have reverted many of the entries you have made or placed several for deletion, in accordance with our notability guidelines. See WP:Notability (people). While your work is appreciated, we can't use articles about individuals who are only known for whom they may be related or for actions in which they may have participated which do not indicate notability with the subject specific guidelines. Please review the guidelines for reliable sources. Note that the general notability guidelines require significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. In order to support notability, we cannot use self-published sources, such as those you have provided to family history narratives or online wikis. As another option, you may want to check out the (semi-active) Genealogy Wikiproject at WP:WikiProject Genealogy or the external project at http://www.werelate.org/wiki/Main_Page. If you have questions or need help, please feel free to contact me. Best regards, Cindy  ( talk ) 04:09, 29 September 2013 (UTC)
