"Trusty friends," "next friends" and "friends" who are really kin. Do you understand these terms in old #documents? bit.ly/29Vc1C
For websites with document images, should our #citation focus on the website or the creator of the original record? bit.ly/1sJaPt4
@TalkinGenealogy Many many times, we'll never find 3 #sources that directly answer a question but can build a case w/ indirect #evidence.
@TalkinGenealogy The "3 sources that say so" rule guided #researchers for a long time, but it fails us. All 3 #sources could be wrong. Or...
Could you use an interactive #citation assistant? evidenceexplained.com/content/citati…
When data providers give source-of-the-source info, must we copy the provider's details exactly as given? evidenceexplained.com/content/using-……
Can you #cite a French-Swiss online database using a model for a U.S. website? bit.ly/1s8fVz4
How do you #cite an assortment of documents passed down in private hands? evidenceexplained.com/content/family…
How do you #cite "tax records compiled in a book"? evidenceexplained.com/content/tax-re…
Do we include personal names when we #cite email from an archives? evidenceexplained.com/content/includ…
How do you #cite a virtual exhibit that's now archived as a webpage? evidenceexplained.com/content/virtua…
How to #cite a 1977 certified copy of a 1942 delayed birth certificate for a 1920 birth? Do those details matter? bit.ly/1YKM8WI
How to #cite a @webinar that's no longer at the URL we attended? evidenceexplained.com/content/webina…
@929io We're with you on that!
When we #cite an online database, should we cite that online provider's image number? evidenceexplained.com/content/state-…
Is http:// still necessary for URL #citations? The debate continues. bit.ly/1qwUypF
Should we #cite paths (waymarkers) for images in online databases? Will users who follow the path end up elsewhere? bit.ly/1SjOyNv
Is a #bibliography necessary when we write a nonfiction book on a historical subject? evidenceexplained.com/content/biblio…
Do you struggle with crafting #citations to online databases? evidenceexplained.com/content/biblio…
