Genealogy Rules

Beethoven can write music, thank God -- but he can do nothing else on earth.

I had to establish some rules for myself concerning whom I would include in the Reveile.org Genealogy Portal and whom I would not. So here's what I'll be using.

1. Anybody named Reveile.
2. Anybody related to someone named Reveile who has a surname that's an obvious variation of Reveile like one of the following:
   Reveile
   Reveil
   Reveal
   Reveale
   Reviel
3. I will personally include all ancestors and descendants of my children and those of my close family.
4. Any member of this site related to me may also enter any of their own ancestors and descendants for the time being but I won't necessarily maintain those portions of the tree myself.
5. When counting ancestors, I think it's proper to include the full siblings of your ancestors

So I'm open to suggestions if this doesn't make sense.
