How to handle a mentally challenged contributer
In the past, my cousin Marianne, user name curtisme2, was joyfully changing a pioneer line pedigree with comments like "it's my tree too." At that time FamilySearch help contacted her caretakers, who agreed to have her stop contributing to the tree.
For the last two years Marianne has again been contributing to the tree. She had added a family in Massachusetts, to a dead end line (Mrs. Mary W. Wheeler Kelly PID LDPR-Z8L.) It took me 5 hours to return that family back to their well documents state. She claims Mary's married name is also her maiden name. She also adds 1790 census in Massachusett for a head of household Mary Wheeler, although Mrs. Mary W. Wheeler would have been 16 years old at the time, with no children yet born.
She keeps adding a 1800 census for the son Timothy Wheeler who was born in 1800. He must have been a genius to have been the head of the house.
I have sent emails, offered to talk on the phone, links to classes, maps and long explanations about why her numerous contributions are not valid.
But last night, after removing the 1800 census again, I approach you, asking that you again contact her caretaker Wayne. Please explain that the Family Tree is not a playground. That she misleads other researchers through her inability to do executive level thinking. Is it possible to make her a viewer without the ability to contribute?
Can this status be more permanent than just 2 years?
