Then, I guess I'm back to my original question: Could we please be informed how our records are being checked so that we can understand why we are getting multiple requests to make corrections to an individual file rather than one request with multiple corrections. I am now up to at least 10 separate requests to correct one particular file. And, this is happening with multiple files. One would think that pages are checked from beginning to end, with errors noted, then going on to the next page. But, this is not what appears to be happening.

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

Given that the corrections have NOT been generated by anybody acting in an official capacity for FreeBMD, it is difficult for me to comment on the methodology. -- Dave Mayall
