However, that discussion is centred around whether there are certain types of correction which are unlikely to result in transcribers making changes in accordance with TWYS. There is a possibility that we will refine the filtering of corrections to cut out some of the ones that tend simply to waste the time of transcribers. However the advice to transcribers as to how they should deal with corrections received will not change, and it will not be practical to tell each transcriber which corrections already sent would not have been sent under the new guidelines, so there is no point in holding back from dealing with corrections that you have already received. -- Dave Mayall ============================== Gain access to over two billion names including the new Immigration Collection with an Ancestry.com free trial.
