===Events===
WikiTree runs events that aim on improving the quality and/or quantity of biographical data on the site, often by employing some kind of [[gamification]] to motivate the community.

Among those are monthly challenges, some aim to remove potential errors found by automated data analysis. These errors include dead links, contradicting ages at marriage or birth of children, typos in location names, and others.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Data_Doctors_Challenge |title=Data Doctors Challenge |website=WikiTree}}</ref>

About quarterly there are 72-hour contests in which teams of members strive to either create (Connect-a-thon) or improve (Source-a-thon, Clean-a-thon) as many profiles as possible.

The WikiTree Challenge<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:WikiTree_Challenge |title=WikiTree Challenge |website=WikiTree}}</ref> features week-long events in which a team of volunteer genealogists collaborate on profiles for a special guest star or genealogical society. Previous WikiTree Challenge guests include Wikipedia founder [[Jimmy Wales]], [[Henry Louis Gates Jr.]] of the show [[Finding Your Roots]], [[CeCe Moore]] of the show [[The Genetic Detective]] and writer [[A. J. Jacobs]].
