    1. Re: {not a subscriber} Submitting a correction.

    3. I suppose the question should be asked? Why is there a need to add a reason why the entry is incorrect. I've copied the last requirement from the "Entry correction" page "When completing the source field, please just tell us, in as few words as possible, where you found the information. Lengthy explanations, or worse still spirited advocacy supporting the correction are unhelpful." Therefore, once you've completed the appropriate correction(s) boxes against the record plus inserted the source reference it should be possible for our Corrections Co-ordinator to validate the correction request. If you would like to have another attempt at submitting the correction request but this time only included details of the source (i.e GRO fiche) your request should be accepted.

I have tried to submit a correction using the proforma page and it will not let me submit. I am using the tick box as requested, defining the record, in this instance the GRO fiche and giving a brief reason as to why I know the is incorrect. I get the error message telling me to make sure I've used the tick box and noted the record in question and I still cannot send it. Any ideas? Regards B. Clark
