Happy Discovery→Tangle/Problem Help→Basic Timeline Grid Idea

I recently discovered an alternate use of the “Sources” column located on the “Edit” Screens for “Vitals” (Name, Birth, Death etc.) on a person’s “Detail” page. I realized that I could use this display to quickly scan through a person’s sources to see how a tagged data field was recorded/indexed, this capability can be very helpful when diagnosing/solving tangles/problems.

I then realized that if FamilySearch could present this same information side-by-side for selected tagged data fields and then add the same information for selected relationships → Walla! We have a very useful basic timeline grid and source review/evaluation tool.

For more specifics about this suggestion see https://app.box.com/s/kvmzwblcvnmyzt6n2qco9e6ts2xh0dl7
