King David of Israel / דוד המלך - Tree Conflict left after careless merging

Hi Sharon,
Would that be the reason that one time King David would be my great grand father, the next time my uncle and even my cousin? I can understand that there was many family marriages but I starting to discount things and don't want to do that.

Could be. Unresolved tree conflicts can block pathways.

I did no merges just checked how we were related on a public famous people page

Tree merges created and left unresolved by other people will block the shortest pathway until they're resolved.

I mean tree conflicts resulting from other people's merges

Hi Sharon
I'm very sorry for the situation that exists however, I don't have much knowledge of this merge. I will definitely look into this and see if I can resolve this issue. I don't think I caused this. That is what I know for now. My knowledge is limited to issues such as this as well.
Possibly you can enlighten me to help resolve.
Regards, Mark

Oh bloody hell!

Not again.

My thoughts exactly.

(Mark, I doubt it's you :-)

I'll still look into this anyway to see if I can help.. Best Regards

Thank you.

Can I just say this. Please stop creating tree conflicts. I feel exactly the same way that Sharon and Shmuel feel. This is nonsense to keep merging. If something seems like it needs to be merged, create a message or a discussion. Most people, even if they are not a curator know if something is right or wrong from research.

King David of Israel / דוד המלך is your 98th great grandfather.

Hello again cousin Kara!!

King David is my 94th Great Grand Father. But now for King Solomon:
I think there is problem to get enough colors to connect him to his 300 wives plus 700 concubines.
Another strange thing is that his son married some off his wives. Now I wonder are it those that Solomon hadn`t time enough to come to.

King David was my great Grandfather now he is just my cousin say what :(

that stuff happens all the time here, Elizabeth Mutchler. over and over again. i guess it is best to not get to attached.

When I looked the first time (out of pure curiosity) if I am "related" to King David : I was surprised that I am.
When I wanted to show the relationship path to my daughter : I was surprised that I'm not related.
A third time looking : I was related
A fourth time looking := NOW : I'm not related.
Either / Or
Who is meddling with the tree connections here? It's not vital for me to be connected to King David but it seems like :
taking a daisy flower, pulling off the petalls thinking :
he loves me/ he loves me not.......

I got before "King David of Israel / דוד המלך is Anne Anttila's 98th great grandfather!"

But now it has changed to: ''King David of Israel / דוד המלך is Anne Anttila's 79th great grandfather's wife's first cousin once removed's husband!"

How so?

King David of Israel / דוד המלך is my grandson Joshua's 96th great grandfather.

Is there a report/list that you can go to that will list "Tree Conflicts" for the merges that you have done?

Currently I can see tree conflicts for
- Profiles that I am the main manager
- Profiles that I follow (which would include profiles that I am secondary manager)

I haven't found any way to see all the "Tree Conflicts" that I may have inadvertantly created on profiles that I don't follow/manage. Personally I would like to fix them but I can't find them to fix them.

For example if you merge a profile that you are a manager on (or following) it can lead to many many merges on profiles that you aren't a manager of. When merging it seems to only show conflicts on profiles that are showing on the screen at the time the merge is completed -

Example if I merge John - who has parents Peter and Mary - it will show me conflicts on Peter and Mary.
If I fix Peter it would show me conflicts on Peters parents and Mary.
If I go to Peter's father and fix him - it will show me conflicts on Peters Mother and Mary and peter's father's parents.
If I fix Peter's grandfather - Mary will drop off the list of profiles to be fixed.

I go hunting for them but I am sure that I miss some of them particularly if lots of profiles end up being involved.

As per Tree Conflicts - is there a report/list that you can go to that will list "Data Conflicts" for the merges that you have done?

I believe that someone mistakenly made an attempt to do something with their personal family tree without realizing it effects the main Tree as well. Therefore I would put a note out to the Primary Curator to make ANY changes as a Consultation. This person usually has the greatest knowledge among the users. This way it's not after the fact and promoting a path to the correct procedure. Kindest regards, Mark Lieberman

Leanne,

From your Home page, orange Notifications box, blue Merge Issues link, click through to your Merge Center, choose Data Conflicts, select one of 4 parameters, resolve conflicts directly or by sending messages to managers (depending on whether you manage the profile or not).

Everyone should be clearing their lists everyday, but not everyone does...

Hi Private User,
I have the following choices
- My Relatives
- Followed by Me
- Managed by Me
- Managed by my Collaborators

This will not give me a list of Tree Conflicts (or Data Conflicts) for profiles that I have merged that I am not
1) primary manager
2) secondary manager
3) following

Leanne M (Volunteer Curator - Australia) 🇦🇺 -- that function doesn't exist now. But we have heard it is in the works.

Leanne,

You asked for a way to find a list of data conflicts for profiles you have merged.
I provided that way in my note to you.
My suggestion is that you "follow" profiles you have merged after you have merged them.
In this way you can 1) keep tabs on the progress (or undoing) of your work and 2) click Followed By Me in order to work on Data Conflicts for said profiles.
There are many "work-arounds" to use while waiting for new functions to be implemented, and this is one. So, Merge, Follow, and then correct Data Conflicts as they appear. As always, actual Tree Conflicts can be worked on in Tree View.
Easy enough, no?
