This doesn't work because the Sources are used - they've just been attached to an empty field.

You can use the useful addon GenViewer to get a list of eg People with no Birth Date and no Birth Place and a Birth Source.

Or you could do a Show list for a particular Source or Sources and tag the individuals using that/those sources and then Search for people with that tag and Birth Date = blank and then searching within those results for Birth Place = blank etc

But you need to know which sources are applied to blank fields to do that.

This would give you a list of individuals involved but I think you'd still need to go through and delete the sources one by one. The Name List/Search List would be the quickest place to do this.

There is an Advanced Sourcing in Legacy which I'm not that familiar with as I enter sources as I go with the Source Clipboard - but I don't think there is an Advanced Unsourcing.

Is there a way to globally delete sources that have been assigned to fields that have no data?

Thanks,
