How to navigate family conflicts over organizing and preserving shared memories

Our family decided to create a shared digital archive of stories and photos but my siblings and I keep disagreeing about what's worth preserving and how to organize it. Mom wants everything included while my brother thinks we should curate more selectively, and I'm stuck managing a growing mess of competing visions for our family memory.

More people experience this than they realize.
