If you have extensive databases with thousands of names in Family Search, I don't think it is possible to keep up. There are hundreds of researchers looking for better data, and it gets posted. It would be like you had many computers and wanted to keep the data the same on all of them while doing research on each one. If I find a change in FT, I look to see if it appears better or worse, and take the action that looks best, but I do not worry about not keeping up. If you find an easy way to keep synched on thousands of names, let me know.

Although I haven't done it, the only thing I can think of is to use the 'Watch' feature in Family Tree to get notified when an individual is changed.
