* '''Facebook profile enrichments''' — Published Facebook-post writeups onto matching soldier profiles (opening summary, biography, infobox fields when known, soldier portrait when suitable, extra images in Gallery, and dated Facebook sources). Skipped posts that were not primarily about the matched soldier. Other Ritchie Boys named in those bios/photo captions are wiki-linked when a clear roster match exists. Biographies framed as family inquiries, holiday posts, or first-person/opinion Facebook voice (“I believe…”, “have you ever heard…”, “more to follow”) were rewritten as factual third-person bios. Where a biography named a birth/death city or full date but the infobox only had a country or year, those Born/Died fields were filled from the prose; document images used as profile photos (e.g. Hauboldt) were moved into Gallery. Review lists: `import/facebook_posts/enrichments/PUBLISHED_REVIEW.md`, `LINKED_MENTIONS_REPORT.md`, `BIO_REWRITE_REPORT.md`, and `~~INFOBOX_FROM_BIO_REPORT~~.md`.

Where a biography named a birth/death city or full date but the infobox only had a country or year, those Born/Died fields were filled from the prose; document images used as profile photos (e.g. Hauboldt) were moved into Gallery. Certificate value '''NG''' (non-graduate marker) is hidden/cleared. Negative research notes (illness, excess absence, failure, etc.) are filtered from display and removed from pages. Review lists: `import/facebook_posts/enrichments/PUBLISHED_REVIEW.md`, `LINKED_MENTIONS_REPORT.md`, `BIO_REWRITE_REPORT.md`, `INFOBOX_FROM_BIO_REPORT.md`, and `BIO_NOTES_SCRUB_REPORT.md`.

* '''Navigation and discovery''' — Sidebar Reading is a shorter start-here list with [[Camp Ritchie]] added; secondary topic pages stay on [[Contents]] / Site pages. [[About]] is labeled “About this project” next to [[About the data]]. Special:Search reorders hits so title matches and site pages rise above research-notes noise. Main Page '''Featured Ritchie Boys''' links three fuller soldier profiles (Guy Stern, Ralph Baer, Eric Waldman) with equal-sized portrait thumbs.

* '''About (tone)''' — Rewrote [[About]] in a calmer wiki voice (dropped the ALL-CAPS work-in-progress banner); clarified how it differs from [[About the data]].
