Survey: Genealogists include sources and remove the living

When publishing their family trees, do genealogists include their source information? Do they remove living people to preserve privacy? The IGCS study suggests an affirmative in the majority position to both of these questions. Over three quarters of genealogists include source information for some or all of the family trees they publish. Likewise, over 80 percent of genealogists remove the living people in their family trees prior to the information being published on the Internet.
