prune bad images #296

Closed robgur closed 11 years ago

robgur commented 11 years ago

This image has caused some consternation among transcribers: http://www.notesfromnature.org/subjects/sernec/large/516db177ea3052410900001e.jpg @denslowm @als9q Any way to check for stuff for this and root 'em out of the image pool?

@robgur This is really shouldn't happen very often, but it might be worth explicitly asking providers not to include this sort of 'ephemera' if they have it. I imagine it was filed in the stacks and a student just went ahead and imaged it...

Yeah, if more of these show up, maybe we can be more concerned. In Calbug, there is now a Skip button and, I admit it, I have already used it once. Maybe that should propagate to SERNEC if not already there for just these kinds of sitches.

There is a skip button on SERNEC already.

One thing to note here is that "skips" count as classifications. So after 4 skips, an image will fall out of rotation, which makes images like this disappear very quickly.
