Disclaimer: The following article refers to the new Source Linker, which is currently being tested by a small group of FamilySearch users. For help with the existing Source Linker, start here.
You have the opportunity to enter a reason statement any time you delete, edit, or add to the information already contained in the FamilySearch Family Tree.
- A clearly worded reason statement helps other users understand why you modified the Tree, and they, in turn, will be less likely to undo or change your work.
- Your reason statement does not need to be long or complicated.
- Short is fine—as long as the statement is clear and specific.
