I was asking from the point of view of perhaps finding the same person in a geneanet tree as i have wondered about in my tree but haven't added as couldn't source the info. I would be interested to see the source info in the geneanet tree so that I could then verify it myself but I wasn't expecting that source info to be certificates.
As I mentioned earlier, I never give my source info. as so much of my info. has been copied over the years, some with wrong info. (which I've seen from hints), same name but wrong YoB & born in a different country.
If people can add hints with info. which is very clearly wrong, they're not going to use time/effort/expense to purchase whatever cert. I may give a ref. to e.g...
Scotlandspeople (SP) - BC - Joe Bloggs - 1885 - Cert. No. 12345 - Parish Dalziel - County Lanark
They'll copy the source info. without spending a penny...my tree is now private.
