There are so many private profiles on this project. It makes no sense they be entered in as "famous".

I’ve requested to make MPs of many showing in the project.

Those recent private additions actually appear to be a bug...Erica Howton, do you know if it's been reported?

Not that I’m aware of, I don’t see how private profiles can be added to project, however.

When a living profile is an MP, it can be added to a project. If the MP tag is then removed, the private profile remains in the project. See this project, which has a private profile in it: https://www.geni.com/projects/Testing/people/4493190

A similar trick can be done by setting a profile to be deceased, adding it to projects, and then setting it back to living. If you look at the revision histories of the private profiles in the Famous Psychologists project, that is the trick their managers used.

Saves time for the manager. :). Hopefully, the requests to make MP will go through, and confusion ended.

Ive noticed it a couple of times. This being the most extreme.

Maybe we should change the name to "Famous Dead Psychologists" That should solve the problem. It will become so exclusive there will be people dying to get in.
