Archibald Bulloch Roosevelt's master profile is locked and is a straight copy-paste from Wikipedia. I'm not sure if this qualifies as someone needing "Clean-up," but I personally think this is just lazy! Any way of fixing/changing this?

So Brittany if you want to work on the "about me" and sourcing, send the curator a geni-message asking if you could and how that's best done. I imagine it was locked as part of duplication / tree cleanup -- sometimes that's the only way to get a handle on a messy tree.

PS And feel free to use my name / include a couple of your profiles to validate your cred for the task. I love your profiles!

Thanks for all your help! (And I only follow the guidelines for profiles that I think you set up. Haha!)

You can toot my horn anytime:)

Seriously -- it's just a format I find easy to read. You in fact got me going on posting my documents as source data, and I appreciate that reminder.
