Record hints
I receive some record hints that I don't know if I should accept or reject. Could a third option be added as 'Don't know' and have the suggestion removed from my 'Recommended Task List'?

There is an option in both the app and the computer to ignore a hint on the recommended tasks and it removes the task from the list. It is a swipe in the app if I remember correctly, (left or right I forget which) and on the computer when you bring up the whole task list you can click ignore on any hint.

Unfortunately, ignoring it when working on the Person page does not have the same effect. There you do have to make a decision, as ignoring a hint means it just stays on the page. It's probably best to class anything you are unsure of as "Not a match", as another user will come along and attach it!
I know I'm talking about a different matter - except there has always been this call for a "Don't know" option, wherever the hint appears.

I'm working with a friend who likes to keep her list of record hints on her home page manageable. It takes about 3-4 clicks to "ignore" a record hint that she is not interested in (View All, then open the record, then hit the down chevron to further open the record, and then finally "ignore"). Could the "ignore" button be put right on the View All list of record hints so a person could just go down the list quickly and manage the hints?
Also another alternative might be to allow users to restrict the hints to the part of the tree they are most interested in. Maybe a restriction like "direct ancestors for 5 generations back and one generation down and no spouses", for example.
Does anyone have any other insights into this?

My friend has another suggestion--On the "View All" list of record hints, could a lock indicator be added to the historical record to show the ones that can only be seen at a FamilySearch Center?
