How do I enter names for this project?

Rose Elbaum, to enter "names" (profiles) you always need to first "Join the Project" (become a collaborator).

I see you already collaborate on this project so can now add your profiles or information, make changes or include any appropriate photos.

There does not seem to be much information available on Beremiany from the usual sources so it would be appreciated if you are able to help out.

Do let me know if you need assistance.

Okay. I need assistance. My question is how do I technically enter "names" to the project? Where do I enter them physically? Sorry if this is too basic, but I am used to entering info into a tree.

Rose, your question is not too basic.

First you have to add the profiles to Geni and then add them to the project (to become collaborators) Remember to always search, make sure that the profile has not been previously added to Geni by another user.

If you are asking how to add profiles that are not yet connected to Geni,
one of the ways I do this is to add them as a sibling to my own profile from Tree View.. ... (Immediate family can also be added at this point).

You will need to detach the new profile from the relationship to your own one by opening "Edit Basics" and selecting "Relationship". (Top left hand side Edit screen)

"Remove" the incorrect relationship from the desired option and check the small "Remove" button. (Although "remove" is an immediate action, I always select the large Remove as well) Save and Close.

Now you can add that profile to the desired project.
