Privacy in Sources
I'm redoing my sources as part of the Practical Citations course with Ben Sayer and another person bought up the topic of email addresses and privacy in sources.
I hadn't considered it much prior to this as I don't swap gedcoms with people, usually. I have some email sources where I've recorded the email addresses of my contact . Mostly these people don't appear in my tree so I haven't added them to my contacts list. I WISH to have that info in my Reunion file for ME to see but not to appear in reports or be sent to others IF I send a gedcom.
I've read the manual, am I right in understanding that the privacy deliminators only work in notes and/or memo fields and am I correct in presuming that the freeform text section in sources doesn't qualify?
Can anyone offer any suggestions that would work or will I need to remove these email addresses from my sources to ensure they stay private.
Thanks
Sue
