[http://www.wikitree.org WikiTree] (initiated on April 26, 2005) is a project running on the [[MediaWiki]] platform that aims to bring together basic personal profiles of all individuals we know ever lived on this planet and ''automatically construct'' bloodline trees of families that will gradually start forming a global ''family forest of humanity''. 

Many people perform excellent genealogical research (or hire professionals that comb the archives and databases for them) and put a lot of effort in constructing their own family trees. However, all such trees, sophisticated as they may be, are ''growing in isolation''.

Very little information needs to be entered about any person - just name, birth, death and children's names.

One of the goals is the ability to visualize any part of the global family tree (patrilineal, matrilineal, in a given period, etc).

WikiTree project follows the rules of a totally transparent community development very similar to the one behind [[Wikipedia]] (free editing and viewing, respect for and appreciacion of differing opinions, languages and cultures).
