PGV was not designed for extensive editing.  Most people do all their 
editing offline with their favorite genealogy program and then upload the 
GEDCOM.

If you want to do everything through PGV, you should use GDBI (which is my 
project).  It is a program you run on your PC, so it is much faster and more 
powerful than using web pages.  It writes directly to the PGV database. 
See:

http://phpgedview.sourceforge.net/editing.php
http://gdbi.sourceforge.net/

It is better to use PGV/GDBI than an offline editor because you will 
eventually give access to your relatives, and they will add info, and your 
offline data becomes obsolete.
