Transcription Error boxes

When the "report transcription error" box pops up the "not readable" box is pre-checked. Can this be changed so no boxes are pre-checked? 99% of the time I use the feature for "not a name" and it's annoying to have to remove the check mark from the "not readable" box each time.

Thanks.

    Where is the report a transcription error feature? I have found a big one where an entire enumeration district is identified as a different location entirely even though the location on the census is perfectly legible. ED 160 in Gloucester County, NJ is transcribed as MONROE Township when it's actually MANTUA Township. They're not even next to one another in the County.

    The transcription error report is located on the right corner of the screen, it has a flag icon on it, I hope this tip can help you find and report the error in the transcription.
