Please explain better how you arrive at the labels of low, medium, & high.

I have looked at quite a few of these, and so far I can't see any consistency. Some have plenty of sources and lots of data, but get a lower score than those that have fewer sources and vague data. If this is going to mean anything to us, we need to see how you arrive at the labeling. The numbers are given, but we don't know if you are adding up the numbers (it doesn't seem like it). We don't even know if higher numbers in all categories are positive, or if some of them are negative. Is it good to have a zero in some of the boxes? More explanation please.

    The quality checker is scanning through the genealogical data and flagging anything that is unlikely.

    Some impossible things (like being married before you were born) have a large effect on the score. Other things (like having a birthdate that doesn't match a source) have a smaller effect on your score.

    Did that answer your question?
