Could I please draw syndicate co-ordinators' attention to the suspect files listing (http://www.freebmd.org.uk/SuspectFiles.html) and request that you review the issues that it identifies for files transcribed for your syndicate. If an issue indicates a problem with a file, then please could you arrange for it to be corrected. If there is no problem with a file, please let me know and I will arrange for the file to be removed from the listing. Whilst the listing is not 100% accurate in most instances it gives an indication of a quite serious problem - quite serious, that is, based on the number of records affected. At the bottom of the listing is an explanation of the errors. I have noted the following causes: Pages outside range - page number slipped, presumably by a transcriber doing per column input, or wrong quarter Unexpected number of entries - failure to transcribe all columns in a multi-column scan There is also a listing which gives all the files with possible alias problems - this is http://www.freebmd.org.uk/SuspectFilesAlias.html. This has been separated because it is so long, but we do need to get these problems fixed as well, so action is also requested for this listing albeit less urgently.
