There are new profiles of the passengers, their parents, spouses and children to be merged. It would be nice to get that going.

Suggestions
- check the Project merge center for pending merges
- do searches of the Geni database

Rules
- resolve data to Main
- resolve data to Master Profile
- Check the "overview"
- Post any discrepancies or questions for curators in this discussion, tagging the profile

Caution
- there are quite a few passengers whose parents are not known - and quite a few disproven myths. But the parent question is still a work in progress for historians. Follow curator notes and contact curators with any evidence that contradicts.

Merging profiles that aren't mine scares me but I'd be glad to help clean up About Mes as necessary...

So go for that, Jennifer! Back up old overviews by creating a text file on the fly named (profile name, dates) Overview - OLD.

... And make sure the doc shows in the media tab.
