WYDWiki guide

Give every name its context.

Dates establish a life. Photographs, documents and stories help us understand it.

Photographs

Portraits, family groups, homes, places and objects.

Documents

Certificates, records, wills, maps and research files.

Letters and stories

Transcriptions, memories, notes and narrative histories.

Audio and video

Oral histories, interviews and family footage where supported.

Make media useful for the next researcher.

Use descriptive titles, identify the people shown, record dates and places where known, and explain the source. Upload only material you own, have permission to use, or may lawfully preserve and display.
