This is an interesting assortment of facts, but on my family tree, there is an error with the name meaning. It associated the name Kis with a Polish word when clearly all the family line was from Hungary. Kis in Hungarian means "small" and is an incredibly common name. Not sure what algorithm you're using to detect names and associate their meanings, but it would seem that taking information from birthplaces would be helpful.

Hello Jessica
My fathers page needs to be updated and edited; https://ancestors.familysearch.org/en/K2Y9-THR/losilosi%27vale-semeli-tuialii-1935-1990?cid=tree-ancestors-r9+Person_Header_email
Please allow me to have access to it so I can make the changes required.
Thank you for the wonderful job you have done on the page.
Yours sincerely
Barbara Tuialii😊

The Ancestor Discovery Pages are built automatically by a computer process. The information for the these pages comes from the standardized dates and places on the person’s detail page in the FamilySearch Family Tree. If there are errors in the Discovery Page, they are also in the Tree. Fix them in the Tree and they will reflect correctly on the Discovery Page. The Discovery Pages are refreshed every couple of weeks.

The discovery page for James Edger Melton L85J-2H3 has an error. List Nancy Henson for his mother. Nancy is his Stepmother. James Edger Melton birth mother is Susan Holt which is shown on his Detail page. On the detail page he is listed as a step to Nancy Henson. I have written about this before would be nice to see this changed. Thank you, Margaret Edwards

This Discovery Page is only a different way of viewing the information as shown on the person's detail page in the FamilySearch Family Tree. It isn't something that is exportable to another system.

The information that is shown in the Discovery Page is already found within the FamilySearch Family Tree.

Somewhere, somehow, I have lost all access to the Temple or checking my reserved ordinances and also ordinances just completed. How do I get back to the old page so I can get into my Temple ordinances. This is not right and it totally frustrating...

This is a nice way to learn about an ancestor. I really like the layout. Thank you.
I found the process of finding the discovery page very clunky though to search for the name. It would be easier to search through the usual method of typing in a name and doing a search. Also, it would be nice to be able to edit the life story and be able to see this type of page as a precursor to the details page after doing an initial search.

The summary in German is extremely awkward, full of mistakes. It’s better to not use it.

The one ancestor page that I reviewed was full of errors. Not a valuable asset for me.

I'm a novice in this area. How do I get a photo of my Mom into this site ? I have a photo I'd like to post, but it's not even on the computer.

There are some mistakes with Annabelle Wildenthal Rylander.

I'm sorry but this is a very confusing system. A "how-to" video would have been very helpful to understand how to use this feature. I don't understand how to really find my ancestor's name, even after clicking on the alphabet. I really want to understand it, so I will have to ask around to see who else has used this successfully.

If you look at Roger Lane LZ4L-DJT on his details page, his parents are Thomas Lane L1WP-K9V and Alice GXCM-CRD. If you go to the new discovery page for Roger, his parents are now Thomas Lane LB4W-1XC and Alice Anne de Bagot LNJT-PV8 with birth years some 60 years later (after Roger's birth) !!!. If you go from these parents' discovery pages back to their details pages, Roger disappears. Looks like there is a bug in the discovery pages. Any idea please?
