Accidentally classifying 'nothing here'

  • Batfan by Batfan

    Don't know what's the matter with me this morning! This is the third clip that I've accidentally classified as "nothing here", when there is quite blatantly a duiker wandering around in the foreground. I know that overall this probably doesn't matter too much as other people will end up classifying them correctly, but I was just wondering what you would prefer us to do when this happens. Is it better to just forget it and carry on, or to retrieve the clip from your profile and comment on it in the 'discuss' box?
    I think, for now, I'll just forget classifying until my brain slips back into gear!

    Well, most important would be that you let us know what the video actually contained. That means, please just tag it with the correct species or write a comment. When three people in a row said "nothing there" the video gets retired. I guess not often this happens for videos with some animal content. So, please relax!

    Thanks @Anland. All tagged or commented on! Can't believe I was so stupid - it was just a case of the cursor hovering over the 'nothing here' button and me accidentally knocking it as I watched the video.
