Users must be very careful when using this extension to FamilyTree and it is not recommended for novices. The large majority of green arrows represent individuals who have duplicates in FamilyTree and when these duplicates are combined the green arrow disappears. Users should always make a reasonable effort to find records and complete as much of the vital details as possible for a person. This should be done before users check for duplicates. Checking for duplicates is imperative before processing green arrows.

Submitting names without accurate research violates Church policy. Policies for submitting ordinances can be found at https://familysearch.org/ask/productSupport#/Research-and-provide-accurate-information-when-submitting-names-for-temple-ordinances-1381812096436 (You must be logged in with an LDS account to view this link). The First Presidency has also counseled Church members "Those whose names are submitted for proxy temple ordinances should be related to the submitter."
