 Sandy and David are doing Notables bingo here on wiki-treat. I'm just gonna say thank you everybody for joining us This has been a really fast January David and I were saying where did January go? And if you find it let us know because it was fast and we had the fun We were chatting on Monday about big oh, and I said well, that's not tell February In February so happy February everybody and we are talking romance and I will tell you that David and I kind of prep this about a month in advance sometimes two months in advance if you go to The Friday night bingo page and I'll drop the link a little bit later on and it's also down below in the description You'll see we have hints and clues about who we're going to showcase on the monthly bingo for the next several months But tonight is about the weaver of romantic Entanglements who is that David and and Sandy before we do that We didn't talk about this in our prep, but you want to mention last yeah last month Who was here the last bingo and we talked about a famous aviator, so who was here we talked about You know a woman an aviator and her plane was missing Amelia Earhart If you weren't here, you should still be able to get this. Yeah, you should still watch it because it was a really cool bingo and David what news happened and I'm convinced is because of our wiki tree bingo because Because of our all of our thoughts being put together So the latest is that they think and I emphasize think that they think they may have found her plane sunken in the ocean and They've got some pretty good technology right now, they know what kind of plane they're looking for they know what shape and size and all the little particulars so It it sounds pretty promising, but they still have to do some more you know some more Diving to make sure that it is what what they think it is But that's some pretty amazing news and and to have happened just literally days after we After talking about it. It was pretty pretty amazing. Go ahead. Everybody. It was us. It was wiki tree. We did I just dropped the link to for Jane Austin's profile And that's our profile notable that we're gonna start with tonight the weaver of romantic entanglements And if next week they if next week they find her missing manuscripts We're gonna I know it is and I will say if you are a fan of Jane Austin Please drop the name of your favorite novel if you want to say movie. That's fine, too We're gonna talk a little bit about both during the bingo and if you have the bingo card I'll put that link there as well. You'll notice that the first bingo card will be all about pride and prejudice and I will say that is not my favorite Jane Austin book or movie I would be curious to see what everybody else thinks about that game Let's go ahead and share my screen so we can take a peek and David tell us about Jane Austin on wiki tree. Well Jane Austin first off she has a very well done profile. She does It was really impressed. We did not create this profile. This was done By Steve Austin, did we ever figure out if Steve Austin has anything to do with Jane Austin? You know, I don't know. I don't either. I did not actually Invested in that so that's that's a good question She also has Many of her family members on wiki tree also have really well developed profile so somebody somebody was clearly a Jane Austin fan and Has done a lot of research under this family and built some really wonderful profiles Jane has you know, I didn't honestly know a lot about Jane Austin prior to Prepping for this and so I've learned a lot but she had a Very very interesting. So she had she had a short life. She only lived to I think 41 or early 40s um She grew up on a farm with a father who is minister her mother believe is The side of the family that any wealth and land came from they were Not not wealthy people. They were probably what we would consider middle class With a lot of daughters and back, you know with a lot of kids are a son suit in Yeah, they had eight children all together Yeah, the issue is when you have a lot of kids then you have a lot of mouths to feed Okay, well here. It's an interesting they have a lot of mouths to feed except let me tell you this little bit of trivia When she was born her mother nursed her until she was four months old at which point she sent her into the city where she was taken care of by Some ladies. I don't know what their job title might have been But they took care of her and taught her to walk and talk and Potty trained her and did all those things that mothers typically do now Until she was 18 months old and then they returned her to the home already to Live her life. Yeah, but mom didn't take care of all that. She sent her away for For a full year to learn how to do all those things. There we go. He's a wet nurse. There and yeah But although the wet nurse was for the nursing but the mother did the nursing It was till she was it wasn't until she was weaned that they sent her off to This place and then she came home and lived her early childhood years, but at age 12 She was then sent to boarding school So and they say with all of the children. So although they had eight children I'm not sure how many were ever home at the same time. She also had a brother who had disabilities So when he was sent off They never brought him back So he was fostered out and raised by another family. So Yeah, it was just a little bit different than we do things today No, but there's times that I wish I could have sent my kids Those are great little trivia bits because you only hear about oh, she wrote this or she wrote that or she was Or a dream or she was a romantic and then you kind of find out the way that she was raised It kind of plays into her novels now If you're a Jane Austen fan, you know that a lot of her her novels have Lots of bits of her life in it not there's not one that is completely Autobiographical but each novel has little bits here and there and here and there So I was asking David David. Do you have not seen Pride and Prejudice? I have not have you seen any? Do you know any? No, I've never I've never read or seen any of the movies and I will say Um, I won't say probably Sense and sensibility is my favorite but boy. I sure do love the quirkiness of Mansfield Park and You know persuasion is really big too But the thing that I want to point out is pride and prejudice and this is why we did the bingo card So if everybody gets their bingo card up, we're gonna start that in just a moment because our other bingo card is packed full of Romantic authors that we want to talk about as well that are notables on wiki tree But to talk about prep pride and prejudice for just a moment When we go through the bingo card, you will see it. There have been so many variations of pride and prejudice I mean we have pride and prejudice and zombies. This is how far her reach is going I guarantee you when she was writing it zombies never came into her mind There's a Bollywood pride and prejudice if you have not seen it. It's fantastic. Watch it if you if you if you just Love a musical it is fantastic. Definitely watch it I as a child saw the I I want to say it's the original movie It was from 1940s It was black and white and it had Greer Carson and Laurence Olivier in it and I was fascinated by the story so much that that got me To read the book that maybe he's okay, you know now looking back. It's okay But I'm going to ask everybody in here and you know, you all let me know would you prefer Colin Firth or Matthew McFadden's mr. Garcy So as you think about that I will bring up the bingo card And those and let me give you a little piece of trivia. You mentioned that She didn't have any zombies at the time, but um pride and prejudice was written in 1813 Frankenstein was written in 1818 So so it wasn't wasn't too far off from From that kind of writing And let me get the bingo card up. So does everybody have their bingo card. See this is so funny now I I was really curious where you guys were gonna go with this. I really was Stephanie, thank you for naming your cat mr. Garcy. Yeah, it looks like I know I am really really surprised that um You guys are definitely picking Colin I think it's definitely Colin for the win and I'm going to guess For those of you who've seen the movie, I'm going to guess it is the scene from the pond That has you guys thinking Colin Firth If I'm wrong, let me know Yeah, I love this Carol. I agree Matthew McFadden was really really great too. It was a really he was played a really good moody Mr. Darcy, but Colin Firth played just like a confused mr. Darcy that just was perfect So and I like this. Um, I see first maybe in my tree my wiki tree So you never know. Okay, so you guys ready for bingo Let me go ahead and bring that up and I'm sorry I I have a presentation to show you about the rules of bingo and I did not load it So my apologies for that. Let me um, let me double check and make sure I didn't load.

This was my first introduction to both of those actors Okay writes 2005 pride and prejudice. This is the one with Kira Knightley and Matthew McBadden I loved it. I love the cinematography of it. I thought the cinematography was fantastic And I like the little quirky things that they did like when Elizabeth and Darcy or Lizzie and Darcy were dancing at that ball Not the first one that was country ball, but the fancy one and they kind of removed everybody from the scene So it was just the two of them. That was kind of cool We got two away George Wickham I guess every story has to have a bad guy and there you go David we got a lot of people there two way and real is we had enough words to be too Bright and prejudice.

It's worth a good read Yeah, it's a really good example of how we'd like all of our profiles to be sure It you know for a notable this is really an outstanding. You're right. It's just really outstanding Okay, the ball another fill That's going to be the fancy ball And a lot that's won away Disapproving aunt. I think you all remember her Oh, there we go.

This is great Okay, it don't forget stan if you are a wiki tree or drop your your wiki tree id there that would be fabulous. Okay I'm so excited. I want everybody to know that david has worked really really hard on this next page It is the uh, romance. I'm trying to pull it up. Oh my You want me to pull it up or do you got it? um, you better do it Okay, I just want to say too when david and I were going through the ideas I I knew I wanted to do something romance. There's it's february, right? We need to do something romance and The first thing that came to our mind and i'm just going to say it's embarrassing is trashy roman man's novels But you know, we realized a wiki tree. We're dealing with some other notables as well so i'm going to show you a page of a mix Of individuals that david has put together in the graphic kills me. I love the graphic That is fantastic, which is by the way ai generated. Oh, is it really? Yes, it is Oh, let's go. So i'm going to drop the link here for the notables page if you are on the connectors say project That david and i are on for this month david has left several of these Unconnected just for you so you can also work on Unconnected notables romance authors. Is some of these some of these authors were um Already had really well developed profiles on wiki tree and others. I just created at the last minute So they're needing a lot of work and they are not connected Well, I will say that if you have a favorite Romance novelist Artists or author. I should say um Let's yeah, and if you see them already on wiki tree that we're going to bring up on this list. Let us know I only gave you a couple suggestions. You found most of these on your own Yeah, and I will say i'm not a big romance novel David was like, oh I have no idea who they are But at the same time I come from a large family of of women readers My grandmother had some of these novelists in her home and my mother I know has read some of them. So I recognize names if not their works And then while we go through this real quick, I'm going to put the second bingo card of the night Up in the chat so you guys can get a head start with that too. I just I love this You always put such fantastic work into these. So, you know, we've got Williams Shakespeare. So, of course, he's going to be connected I would assume he would be Yeah, he's connected. You can't leave Romeo and Juliet out there. No, you definitely can't And then Charles bro with cinderella. I mean when I saw that I was like, oh my gosh I hadn't realized the author. You just think about cinderella in disney You don't really put it together Not connected. So do we have anybody that works on french profiles? We need you look zero We have zero cc seven. No family connected. It's a it's a profile. It's been up a while, but it's And uh, steven, I just posted it. I will post it again Just in case the internet did a little blip And we talked about Jane Austen, but Victor Hugo only has 18. He's connected But we also need to increase the cc seven in a hunchback of notedom so so that's an example of someone who The profile was put up and somebody made the real quick connection And then he's been left alone since and we run into that a lot with our notables That they'll have a cc seven of seven or eight That that link him to the tree But unlike Nathaniel Hawthorne who has seven thousand seven or ninety three And let's take a look at his real quick just a look at The profile a little bit somebody has put a lot of work on this. I love that they put the signature And you know the scarlet letter I it was required reading when I grew up and oddly it was required reading when my kid grew up I thought maybe it would have um Cycled out, but it didn't Wonderful beautiful wiki tree profile here This is just full of life. It's amazing. I I really Kind of get involved reading these for a long time And I'll go back and look at the pictures and read some more to the details And then I'll get to the sources, but this was a wonderful done profile And I will just put in real quick So my connection to is eighteen degrees So I think we could probably shorten that up a little bit with I would say probably with some cc seven work if anybody was interested in doing that And let's just get to to my loves. These are my loves and there is a third bronte Sister out there, but charlotte bronte and emily bronte all-time favorite Absolutely best romance movie I have ever seen in my life weathering heights the original version Um, I just don't know how anybody can watch that and not come away Affected that how wonderful the writing and the story and the plot was the bronte sisters were known to be a little bit dark as well Jane austin was oh, she had her little dark moments, but they were they were fun The bronte sisters bring in a whole different level and the one that we're missing The other bronte sister also wrote a novel, but Her uh sister charlotte refused to allow it to be republished in england um, I The widow of uh, something. Oh, I can't remember right off my head But the bronte sisters love and I can tell you right now I'd love to see there's cc sevens up because I'd love to be more connected to them in tollsoy I mean anna karina that is classic as well dh lauren's lady chari's lover. Look at this profile. This profile is connected, but it's only 316 cc sevens very controversial book Was banned in a lot of places if you're sitting where i'm sitting You sure do know margaret michael was going with the wind I cannot believe margaret michael only has 338 cc seven I can't believe it. I'm just i'm shocked at that because generally people latch on to some of The bigger novels and here's her profile, but again a really nicely done You know, what's nice about these profiles that are really fleshed out is even if somebody's not interested necessarily in genealogy It's still a really cool little um Summary of her life to To read and and I think because we do focus on the genealogical aspect as opposed to just the career um, we give people Little tidbits that maybe they don't get on wikipedia or other popular sites This is just it. I always love to see photos In a lot of our older notables, it's very easy to add the photos because they're wiki commons So that's really kind of easy to do and I there you go. Thank you. Thank you. I know the tenet of um wildfield hawk Very controversial book as well. If you there is a bbc movie on that as well Really interesting and I love that you're all as common. It's with sir. Lawrence Olivier. I mean that is just amazing amazing movie and john Irish I was talking about um, Kate Bush song that I didn't know that's weathering heights. I didn't know that And I didn't know this partly named after anna carina. That's pretty cool We learned so much from you guys every time we do this we learned so much from you guys as well And the scarlet letter movie was just on Okay, let me go through this so when um When sandy proposed this project and mentioned her the trashy authors the first thing I did was google trashy authors And I got a whole list of them And they started with barbara cartlyn That's the one I was thinking of first and she's related to princess diana. This is diana. Absolutely I mean she is extremely step grandmother. I believe yeah Is she I mean and She was one of the founding members of the romantic novelist association how perfect for our events that we're doing tonight So this is great too that we we tried to include everybody from all different regions Okay, let's go back. Oh the french lieutenant's wife some of these I don't know if you guys have read the books or only seen the movies or have done both And I remember screw bowls back it back in the day I was young my mom would look at that and it jackie collins. It's just iconic How is this sister we're getting into more of the ones that are more modern So if you notice they're not connected they have zero cc seven or Very very low if they have zero cc seven it generally means that I just created the profile Within the last week and I love this you're including harlequin novels. That's like where everybody starts I think with this as Is your go down if you guys have any of these that you really really like let us know I saw somebody mentioned danielle still already She only has 152 cc sevens we can prove that I think somebody mentioned uh, nor roberts as well the witness What a fantastic movie and book Um, okay. Can we just pause for a second and you know the outlander series dianna gavel done I just who doesn't love the outlander series and um, you you did find some other ones here Nicholas sparks has Everybody noticed that when you watch Nicholas sparks movie one of the main characters always dies It's just terrible the love interest always dies terrible and guess what I still watch every single one of them So we'll get the pictures back up too. I we have to do some special stuff when we're doing living pictures from the living profiles and I forgot to do that That's fine. They always get the most library takeout I love that This is great. So thank you guys for playing along. I really I really appreciate david creating this page I give him an idea and we talk about it and we decide what we're gonna do And then he just he goes and creates these wonderful pages for my favorite thing to do And I will say That now that he's created this page Help him out. I hope increases cc seven I hope get these people connected to our big tree So then that way we can find out how we connect to them as well. So I love it and I agree. Thanks, david And I always emphasize when it comes to the notables we get questions all the time. Why do we focus so much on notables? But um once you get past the notable they're just families like everybody else So they really get a little interesting But um when you connect the notable to the tree you're hope you're helping a whole family Branch get connected. So you really are. I appreciate the help on that And it makes it really fun for us because also we hope some of these will be picked up on the feature connections as well And then you can also share your love that you have from bingo with These individuals with all of wiki tree that comes up. So let me bring up the next bingo card if you guys are ready And I I know carol some people like a liner. Some people don't um You know what carol?

They're all not just one country or or the americas like we tend to do sometimes So what do you guys think you guys have been fun with this?

So who's gonna help us out who's gonna go to Do some cc7 or some connecting or maybe your favorite Author and as carol said if you don't see their author there feel free adam the wiki tree That's what this is all about to encourage the fun And also if you have somebody that you really like that's notable Go ahead and add them if they're living just check out some rules with david. He's always available This will be um posted on g2g. So if you find that link you can always um You know post post any recommendations you have there and then it'll also be on the notables website as well So there'll be a couple places you can find it if you lose the link here And if you happen to be watching after the fact as you know, you can't win a bingo prize But we appreciate you watching after the fact and for everybody that was here live Thanks for joining us because you you guys in your comments are what makes it fun for David and I to really Enjoy this new format of notables Oh, let me write down real quick. So david, what about your page? Do you um, can people just go? in ad um You won't be able to just add to it, but you can um Like say if you go to the g2g thread you can post your um You know any other authors that you that you might think of you can post them in in the thread And um, or you can just send me a message. It's it's kind of nice if you post them in the thread then other people can Um, I'm sure you can feedback and that kind of thing and for those of you that are still here in like, you know Just a couple sentences. Can you help this out with living notables? because Oh, um, should we know about living notables if we want to add them to wiki truth. Okay, so You cannot edit a living notable Unless you are working directly with a project So let's take this list Um, as an example if there is a living notable and you would like to actually work on their profile Um, let me know and I can add you to the trusted list and you can get on and work on that profile We don't leave you on there indefinitely. Um, that's that's for security and privacy reasons. We have rules. We have to follow Um, so we'll allow you to go on and do the work you need to do Um, but then then we pull you back up once you once you've completed that The other option if you want to add parents, it's siblings that kind of thing is just to give us the Um, the profile ideas and we can add them on there for you which saves you the trouble of Being added on and then taken off again Um, so you can just like said if you create the profiles for the parents Give me the id numbers and I can attach them for you Um, a lot of times I did not have time with with this group But a lot of times I'll go in and add the The parents will try to find them and add them just so that we have that link already there Um, but I didn't get a chance to do that on these so but you Again for for privacy reasons, we can't open them up. Um, if they're still living for for We can open them for viewing but not for editing So and again if you have a notable I recommend that you contact our living notable Excuse me. I recommend that you contact David and get the rules again if you forget what they are from this conversation We'll try and remind people. I think every bingo though What the rules are because we are under Very specific privacy laws with this and there's some other little hints that David can give you about what you can and can't do When a profile of a living notable So we have to follow not only u.s. Laws, but european laws, etc. So there's a lot of little Influencies we have to worry about And the other thing is usually I don't put living profiles On the on the list Because of the thing this time we didn't have a lot of deceased romance novelists Kind of make an exception, but usually you're not going to find Very many living notables on our list Well just for that reason Next month, um, I think we'll be okay. So remember the first Friday of every month You'll see us here at 6 p.m. Eastern time with the Notables bingo and st. Patrick's Day It's march and the clue is a double in our Irish john should know this one too by the way, but thanks for joining us guys. We'll see you next month
