Hi,

I would like to ask about starting a page for Dieveniskes. My grandparents were from there. The main purpose would be for photo identification of photos submitted by descendants from the town. Should I create the page and then you can link it to this Oshmiany project or some other procedure.

Thanks,
Adam Cherson

Hi Adam,

Good plan. I have created many town projects. Make sure you have your exact title of the prospective project written out on paper ahead of time. Once you create the title you can not change it easily. Follow the hundreds of other Jewish Town Projects format for your title. Your example shown to the left here is too long for searches and links. It's a Title, not the entire encyclopedia and history.

Links can be added later. Easy to do in the right hand side of your new project.

I think your "main purpose" is too limiting. Make it a real town project with proper short description and text encouragement to users adding profiles, not just a "photo" collection.

My thoughts.....

Dan

Thanks Dan.

Here is the new page: https://www.geni.com/projects/Dieveniskes-Divenishok-Lithuania-Hub-...

If you want to connect this page to this other project, as has been done with some of the other towns in the area, that's fine with me: https://www.geni.com/projects/Jewish-Families-of-the-Lida-and-Oshmi...

Cordially,
Adam
