Use the &#8220;Add to project&#8221; link from a profile&#8217;s &#8220;More Actions&#8221; menu to add the profile to a project. Make sure you follow the project first so it will appear on your list of projects.\u00a0Before you add a profile to a project, make sure that it belongs in that project. Usually the main project page will make the scope of the project clear.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that user who collaborate on the project will be able to edit and merge any profiles you add to the project.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.geni.com\/projects\">View the list of Projects<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Projects were first introduced a couple of weeks ago as a way to organize groups of profiles, usually around a specific family, surname, place or event.
