One record, two images: Should the image be indexed?
I've been coming across petitions for naturalization/citizenship in which the first image contains most, if not all extractable data, and the second image is the bottom part of the same document, usually the oath and signature, and possibly the record number. If I answer that the second image should be indexed, it treats it as a completely second record, if I put no extractable data, it tells me the record will be completely deleted. How shoud I proceed? This is from US, California—Naturalization Records, 1887–1940 [Part C][MQJT-W72]

When you mark an image as NNED, it will mark the entire image as that, not just one part of it, but since there is Extractable data, you will not mark it as NNED. The Oath is its own separate document and is indexed. If it is on the same image, as you described, it will be indexed as the second entry in the image. If it is on Image 2, you will index it there. The Oath is indexed with the name and date only.
