Information from public family trees

Here is a note from Sandy about getting death information from public family trees.

Don't intermix public family tree info with better documented sources for your obits.  Public tree info is QC 4, so you'd have to make your QC a 4 if you use any information that is found only on the public tree. For example, If you have only year of death on Find A  Grave, and you find month and day of death in a public tree, you should enter only the year in the obit screen.  You can put day and month in  the remarks, but do not enter it as data.
