Reviewing already indexed documents

This if a wonderful idea, as most of the records I search for have at least one indexing error, some of them severe.

However, when I did some reviewing it was frustrating because I had to make some changes three times before the site would go on to the next name. Can something be done about this?

    I'm not involved with the development of this project, although I have used the program to review several hundred names. It can be fun. I've probably had issues like the one Juanita has mentioned but chalked it up to my learning curve. I haven't tried it for weeks, so I don't know about its current state of bugginess.

    I just gave it a try, and I like the (new??) "adjust image" controls., but please give us the ability to make the blue-colored mask toggle away if we wish - probably leaving the outline behind. The faded black writing under the blue mask is sometimes hard for me to read accurately - e.g., this morning. I'd like to have an unimpeded view of the original, at least for a moment. And, I have occasionally wished I could (temporarily) move that box out of the way, boundaries, colored mask, and all. I have found that I can go to the next word and navigate back, but that shouldn’t be necessary.

    Thanks.
