January 2015 - Happy New Year

Happy New Year

So here we are at the beginning of another new year, where does the time go?

Our community, as measured by the number of registered accounts has grown by 45 over the past twelve months, although sadly last year saw the death of one of our founder members and significant contributors, Richard Reeves. During the past twelve months, we've added 521 new pages to The Reeves Project and many, many more pages have been updated as our knowledge of our Reeves folk increases.

As ever, my plea is for more members to take an active role in contributing to TRP and I think it worthwhile reiterating my thoughts from last April. Each of us has at least three UNIQUE things we can contribute to TRP
  • The first is pretty trivial and easy to achieve - its your real name.
  • The second is to create your AboutMe page, so we understand a little more about where your R*v*s interest lie in time and place and (optionally) if you're not too shy, a little about you as an individual.
  • And thirdly, contribute a page for your most recent R*v*s ancestor (or your R*v*s grandparent/great grandparent to avoid living individuals). If a page for the individual already exists, you can still add as a "Research Note" a "for our eyes only" paragraph explaining your relationship to the individual.
And its no co-incidence that each of those three activities is covered in our First Steps guides.

Wiki Stats - End December 2014

The total number of pages in the Wiki (as at 1 January 2015) now stands at 6144 (previously 6131, 6101, 6082), an increase of just 13 pages during the past month and co-incidentally the same number as was added in December 2013. Of these 1270 pages (was 1269, 1268, 1265) begin with number and are most probably a date related gleaning. We currently have 2479 wiki pages categorised as "People", of which 2063 begin with the letter "R".



TRP Users

We ended December 2014 with 197 user accounts registered with TRP, with just one new member successfully activating their account during the month. We welcome Carolyn and look forward to her contributions to TRP.
