I think some prior questionable merges complicated the branch and began a snowball effect continuing along the wrong path. Evidently there is a lot of speculation surrounding it. Hopefully the more knowledgable managers of this profile will have time to check and correct it, but in the meantime I eliminated the least logical (also most recently introduced) set of parents; and adjusted her birthdate.
I somehow got caught up in the chaos, and quickly found myself in a hotspot that I should have been more careful to avoid. I have to take my own advice when it comes to merging profiles in families about which I know very little, and of which I haven't done enough investigation. Looking at past merges is part of it, something I didn't do that time. On the other hand, it may have been inevitable anyway, sooner or later. If not me, then someone else could have been drawn into the quicksand.
I rarely feel the need to completely undo work done by others long ago (some of it MP'd); so I'd rather compromise sometimes, by looking more closely at the established facts on the existing profiles. That's how I made a reasoned decision, this time. I feel it is better than leaving her with two entirely mismatched sets of parents.
Problem with this page?
