Talk:FamilySearch Indexing: US—Registers of U.S. Army, 1798-1913, Project Updates

Help us improve the indexing and arbitration of this project. Click the Edit This Page button to make suggestions. Messages will be removed after careful review by support and any updates will be posted to the Project Updates page. Many commonly asked questions, such as indexing crossed out information, have already been answered in the Basic indexing instructions.

Updates say if arbitrator receives a batch with military units indexed, unhide the fields and carefully arbitrate it. What if one indexer indexed the units and one didn't. In record matching is the arbitrator supposed to delete the entries made by the indexer who entered them or choose the indexer who entered them over the indexer who didn't? For example, I've had batches arbitrated where I was marked incorrect because I didn't unhide the military unit field and enter the units, as per updates, but apparently the other indexer had.
