Reviewing a batch from City Directory

First up tonight is a batch that is ordered by address, instead of by surname. It is a mix of mostly business with some residence with it's occupant mixed in as the house number comes up. I've never seen this before. I don't think I would have indexed it because the same people would have been listed in the Alpha portion of the Directory. Here is the link to the batch so you can understand the issue, but don't know if it will link/show. https://www.familysearch.org/indexing/batch/558735d5-97e3-4092-b7a8-40b0c2ec2236 …. I'll try to put a screen shot in Comment in case the link doesn't work for you. Do I say YES and review the entries [indexer mostly skipped the businesses.] OR do I say NO because it is probably a duplicate of earlier entry, based on assumed Alpha listing in another part of Directory I can't see??? Thanks, Linda

    This thing is a mess. I'd honestly throw it back for reindexing—Batch/Reindex Batch—then when the pop-up appears, delete the indexed data.

    Instructions say not to index street directories. The image says Street Guide. I would assume that's the same thing. I would mark it NED.
