Ancestry Tree Rating

[warncoort]

Apologies in advance if this post offends any users.
I have just noticed that Ancestry are now rating users tree,mine being 9.5 but no indication if this is a percentage or what.
Maybe users can now start rating Ancestry's performance,though knowing their dislike for anyone questioning them,posts would probably be deleted.

I can’t see anything whatsoever to be offended by in your question. 
 
The first I heard about this rating system was a couple of days ago when someone mentioned that their tree was rated quite low. I think they hadn’t bothered putting in birth or death dates or something like that. I must say I wouldn’t trust any of these automated, guesstimated, calculated, algorithmic estimated carrots put out by Ancestry.

I’m sure you are right - the rating would be very low if users were able to rank Ancestry.

I haven’t checked my tree yet, but I’m not paying Ancestry at the moment so they might have removed my tree or maybe only showing me three generations, or three people with the rest behind a pay wall.

I'm not subscribed either but I can see all of my tree but not view their sources.
I can't find any rating on it but then I do have it as private.

I was just on Ancestry now trying to find my rating. It must be hidden somewhere, or maybe only subscribers can see it.

(I was sort of joking about them not letting me view my whole tree, due to “included” features dwindling.)

Ah! I missed .

That was indeed me hinted at by Ruskie above

It only appears when you open a tree on the activity bar ie : Activity : Invite: Find A Tree

Its an opt-in to ''help you with your tree '' ie tidy up the duplicates and point out the issues with your tree

6.6 Fair
You have 4744 possible errors in your tree.
64 Possible duplicates
14 Only tree documentation
4664 No documentation
2 Other possible errors

As noted the 4664 No Docs would be 3rd cousins spouses etc where dates havent been entered

1. Its a money spinner at $XX per month
2. Again its you the purchaser doing their work to provide them with more hints

And yes I know I have errors in my tree but I dont care - its my tree

Is this a "Pro Tool"?

I notice Familysearch is now using a Data Quality Rating on some records, which is explained in this article dated 27 Nov 2024.

Perhaps it is something similar.
