Mary Just by way of an example. In fact there are 4 entries shown against you in the database. Two of these are shown as fully registered and the other two are part registrations. Interestingly, one of these latter part registrations looks as if was an attempt by a co-ordinator to register on your behalf, it failed due a slight misspelling in the co-ordinator's email address. Before deleting any duplicate volunteer, we will contact the volunteer using all the email addresses shown against the volunteer and also check the database to see if their accounts are active. The first tranche of volunteers with duplicate registrations were contacted back in May and these will be at the front of the queue for deletions (obviously based on the responses from the volunteers). You personally would not have yet been contacted in this first tranche, because according to the database your first registration was way back in March with the other 3 attempted registrations occurring in August. So in answer to your query, when we do get around to contacting you regarding your duplications we will send an email to all 4 of the email addresses shown against your registrations, at least one of these should reach you. At that stage you would then tell us which are your active and non active accounts (plus the dynamic total situations).

I have 3 accounts of which 2 are active:- 1 - one a typo with an incorrect email address, so I don't know how you would contact me 2 - one for my transcriptions (10000+ where my coordinator controls the edits, although he would prefer it if I was one of the 0 entries people since all my transcriptions would appear under his name) 3 - and another for my one-name study entries (10000+ where I contol the edits). So if my understanding is correct, not all '0 entries' correspond to people who have not done any transcriptions. In some case the '0 entries' will be a static situation where the transcriber sends their transcriptions by email to their coordinator, and sometimes it is a dynamic situation, since they will go above '0 entries' as they upload the files themselves and then go back down to '0 entries' as their files are uploaded by the coordinator under a different ID and then deleted by the coordinator from the transcriber's account, by the coordinator using the transcriber password.
