FAG is not a resource I think to use they're like the tree sites they are at the back of my mind when I'm researching they are part of the wild west of genealogy

What, you're not interested in seeing photos of your ancestors' gravestones?
Gravestones can be valuable sources of information. The Victorian gravestones I am adding to findagrave often have useful extra information such as occupations and addresses. There are often infant children listed who were born and died between the census which you wouldn't otherwise know about. It might save you buying the death certificate since the full death date is usually on the stone.
The bios are another matter. I only add verifiable data to the bio, such as info from the burial register or probate calendar, when creating memorials. The problem is that other people can edit the memorial and add info that I am unable to verify. This puts me in a quandary as I don't want to be uncooperative, but I have had little success when asking for sources.

I Googled her name and hey presto there she was, buried in Allerton.
