A coworker, Fran Jensen, pointed out to me that some biographical articles in Wikipedia include a pedigree chart showing the person’s ancestry. For an example, check out the pedigree of Francis Scott Key:
Click the Show button beneath the box labeled “Ancestors of Francis Scott Key” to show the pedigree.
Thanks, Fran.
I love these. I wish that users of wikitree and other collaborative trees had the same emphasis on citing sources and verifiability that wikipedia users usually show.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, has anyone ever seen a discussion of citing sources in wikipedia compared to the genealogical proof standard?
