Various SourceWriter templates have fields for e-mail addresses or mailing addresses or website URLs. It is inevitable that from time to time people move house or get a new e-mail address and that websites get moved or disappear altogether.
What is the protocol regarding such changes? Does one update the existing Sources or create new ones? As it may vary according to circumstance, I list a few here: 1 A few citations which include an address where the address is no longer current but that Source will not be used again. (Eg a one-off letter from someone.) 2 As above, but one will continue to use this Source. (Eg a continuing e-mail correspondence.) 3 and 4 Similar to 1 and 2 above but substitute change of URL. Obviously there's not a lot one can do about a website which is taken down altogether (although in some cases a pointer to the Way Back Machine might be helpful.) -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
