Features & Capabilities

Genealogy Source Finder is a browser extension designed to make the research and citation process for genealogists quicker and easier. It helps you with three essential tasks:

From any genealogy profile page (e.g., on WikiTree), it allows you to search for relevant records across popular genealogy websites. When viewing a record on a genealogy site, the extension can automatically extract the data and generate a proper citation for it. Additionally, from the record page of one genealogy site, the extension can help you find similar records on other websites, potentially locating free versions of the same source. The extension runs efficiently, with no impact on web performance unless you're actively using it. It does not alter any website content, only registering when the popup menu is triggered.

Features:

Search multiple genealogy sites from a profile page Automatically generate citations from found records Cross-reference records across multiple genealogy websites Lightweight and non-intrusive performance

Is Genealogy Source Finder Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Genealogy Source Finder requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Genealogy Source Finder may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
