I literally have thousands of people in my family tree that I have been working on for almost 40 years. Disabling GEDCOM import is not at all a good option. This totally determines that I will not pay for a premium subscription because there is no way I am going to start from scratch, or import other people's data which may not be as well researched as it should be. Very disappointed.

Lennard Peter Sutherland Second that, found many errors in searched occurrences, specially on ancestry.
Sad that they cannot allow import with auto compare and proposed links to approve or not.
I would not mind to inform someone or engage them if a proposed link has an error on their side ;-)
Not trashing so many years worth of research even though I am using free Ahnenblatt :-P

Dr. Knut Michael Wittkowski I fully agree that GEDCOM import would be a good idea. There should be no difference between entering information about a person manually and entering information about a person from a GEDCOM file. Just do the same thing that myHeritage does when importing information from other trees. Show the existing vs the new information for the person in question. Protect any curated information, but let users import information from a GEDCOM file one person at a time.
