With record hints, we’re asked to choose IS or IS NOT a match. What should we do for MAYBE?

Do not do either, but wait until you can figure out the correct answer.

Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

Just in passing ...

In regard, to "Record Hints"...

Your Question: What should we do for MAYBE ?

Firstly ...

IF, the "Record Hint", appears on your List of "Recommended Tasks"; and, you CANNOT "Decide" either way, if such is a "Match"; THEN, there are two (x2) options,

(1) IF, you are happy to LEAVE such on your List of "Recommended Tasks"; THEN, just LEAVE it, do nothing.

Whereas ...

(2) IF, you DO NOT want to 'see', such on your List of "Recommended Tasks"; THEN, simply select "Ignore".

As, when one selects "Ignore", that ONLY "Removes", the "Record Hint", from one's List of "Recommended Tasks"; but, DOES NOT, "Remove", the "Record Hint", from (ie. against) the individual/person.

[ ie. Such, just "Removes", the individual/person, from one's List of "Recommended Tasks" - nothing more ... ]

Secondly ...

Whereas ...

IF (ie. WHEN), the "Record Hint" appears, on the "Person/Details" page/screen, under "Research Help", for/against an individual/person; and, you CANNOT "Decide" either way, if such is a "Match"; THEN, just LEAVE it alone (ie. Do NOTHING); as, such can be left either, (1) for another User/Patron to "Decide"; or, (2) for a later date; when, you may be able to "Decide" (ie. Confirm either way).

As, there is NO "Option", for a MAYBE ...

Plus, there is NO "Option", to "Ignore" ...

[ And, NOR should there be ... ]

I hope, that this may help/assist, somewhat.

W D Samuelsen contact me please

Brett, that one you mentioned "Recommended Tasks". that choice is there only. NOT in the Persons Pages. No choice, just Match or No Match.

It's 'Brett'.

'Yes', I know that ...

This is WHY, I separated, my response, into TWO (x2) Parts ...

ie.

Firstly ... "Recommended Tasks", on one's "Home"/"Land" page/screen, of 'FamilySearch'

INGNORE

and,

Secondly ... Under the "Research Help" Section, on the "Person/Details" page/scree, of an individual/person

left either,

(1) for another User/Patron to "Decide"; or,

(2) for a later date; when, you may be able to "Decide" (ie. Confirm either way)
