You can help!
Hi All,
I'm excited to see that we have over 10 members now! I want to let people know about what I'm doing behind the scenes.
Currently there are 1,700 observations included in the project, and fewer than half of these have the new observation fields (see the last journal post for more info). These observations were added before I had set up the observation fields for length and model name, so they each need to be revisited and updated manually.
It is a daunting task to work through the backlog, and not straightforward to find the ones that need updating. Fortunately I have a convenient URL that can be used to bring up only the observations that still need updates:
If you follow that link you'll see the observations that still do not have the length added.
Of course if you add new observations to the project, please remember to add the length, and the model name if you recognize it. If you know the name and it's not listed, choose the 'Model not listed' option.

Looks like I can add the scale, but not the model. This is on my own recent observation from a few days ago.
Thanks for commenting. Yes, I have to add models to the list on a case-by-case basis. There are too many to include arbitrarily.
Or wait, you must mean that you can't find the observation field. If you type 'Swiss Army Knife Brand/Model' in the observation fields box it will come up. I added the Vagabond for you.
Maybe I should add that field to the project so they both appear when you add a new observation to the project. EDIT I went ahead and did that. Both fields will be visible when adding new observations now.
Yep, I meant that I couldn't see the field as part of the project. Thanks for adding that, it will make annotating records much easier!
