WikiTree Day and Symposium 2023 - FREE ONLINE GENEALOGY CONFERENCE!

This event is entirely free and open to anyone! You can even attend without registering, but registration is necessary for certain events, invitations, and to be eligible for door prizes.

WikiTree Day: What Is It?

WikiTree first opened in November 2008. Last year, 2022, we decided to celebrate our 14th anniversary by officially designating November 5 as WikiTree Day. We marked the anniversary with a symposium, a party and a whole lot more.

This year it’s WikiTree’s 15th anniversary and we had so much fun last year, we are doing it again! Only bigger, and better.

There will be a virtual anniversary party, presentations about all the opportunities WikiTree offers, videos about the different projects on WikiTree, a live interview with founder Chris Whitten, a panel discussion about genealogy and artificial intelligence … plus games, door prizes and much more!

It’s more than 60 hours of events. We start with a free genealogy symposium with a variety of leading speakers on genealogical topics. The symposium starts Friday, November 3, at 8am EDT (noon UTC) and runs non-stop for 36 hours, ending at 8pm EDT (midnight UTC) on Saturday, November 4. Then our WikiTree Day will officially kick off at 8am EDT (noon ETC) on Sunday, November 5.

What is Wiki Tree?

WikiTree Day and Symposium 2023 - FREE ONLINE GENEALOGY CONFERENCE!

Vision

WikiTree balances privacy and collaboration so that living people can connect on one world tree to common ancestors.

We privately collaborate with our close family members on modern family history. As we go back in time, the privacy controls open up. Collaboration on deep ancestors is between distant cousins who are serious about genealogical research, careful about sources, and willing to see their research validated or invalidated with DNA.

Because all the profiles are connected on the same system our collaboration is creating a single family tree that is connecting us all, preserving our history, and making our shared genealogy available for the world to access, for free, forever.

Community

WikiTree is a community. Our shared tree is open to the world. Everyone is invited to enjoy the fruits of the tree. However, those who actively help to grow it must agree with our mission and our nine-point Honor Code.

Despite the many benefits of community membership, it’s all free. There are no “premium” memberships. Nobody will ever be charged for access to anything on WikiTree.

Organization

WikiTree was founded by Chris Whitten and is hosted by a small business named Interesting.com, Inc.

The site first opened in 2008. It has been steadily growing and improving since then. The community improves the tree. Chris and the WikiTree team improve the technical infrastructure and tools. We do this by working with community members to discover what they need to further our shared mission — and to have fun doing it.

We have made a pledge to keep WikiTree free. This is possible because we are an ultra low-cost operation. Almost everything is done by volunteers. By keeping costs low we are able to cover expenses through modest ads on public pages.

Nothing lasts forever. Someday WikiTree.com will not exist, at least not in the form you see it now. But we are committed to preventing the information that we are growing together from being lost. See Protecting Our Shared Tree.
