I don't put sources on my web pages. A lot of my sources (and sources for my
sources) are still alive and I don't want to put them on the web. Anyone can
contact me and after I have assertained they are all above board, we swap
gedcoms and other info.
I don't consider web family trees a total source but a starting point.

I hate to say this out loud, but none of us will live forever, but family
trees we
upload to Rootsweb, Ancestry, or other sites will. Do you have the email
address of two other people attached to the family trees you have uploaded
or
on your own website who will theoretically live longer than you and who can
and will correspond with others who are 'serious researchers'?
Why do you post information on the web if you don't want others to use it
and just how serious can anyone be who doesn't attach sources? When I see a
family tree on the web with no sources, I disregard it as non documented and
have stopped bothering to contact whomever put it on the web.
