See https://www.geni.com/projects/Geni-Master-Profile-best-practices/28084 for a description of Master Profiles on Geni.
Before posting here:
1. Try your hardest to connect the profile to the tree (or at least a significant stand-alone tree)
2. Check https://www.geni.com/curators first to see if there's a specific curator who specializes in your area, to whom you should address your request
3. Make sure the profile overview is well-written with proper grammar, punctuation and source citations.
4. Master Profiles are public, so do not include any information or photographs or other images that you or others might consider to be confidential or private.
5. Consider using the multi-lingual support available on Geni to provide information in different languages where appropriate.
6. Ensure that the text and any pictures in the profile are sourced and do not breach any copyright.
7. Understand that a curated profile is not necessarily a “complete” profile. Geni users should continue to add citations and upload source information to profiles after they become MPs.
In your post:
8. Include the URL of each profile to be curated.
9. Advise if fields (data and relationship) are ready to be locked.
10. Explain why the profile is requested to be made an MP. If for example there are two profiles that are often confused, include the URL of both and state why. Do not assume that curators know your thoughts or are familiar with the context which led to your request for the Master Profile flag.
