PROGRESS
To date we have coded/allocated for coding 50615 posts, and actually 
coded 49275 of them. Out of those coded, 26503 have been rejected 
(53.7%).

This week, with 10 people coding, we did 746 posts, and have reached 
post 42800 on the main list. However, because of the review, many 
people switched from coding earlier in the week, and are now 
concentrating on that task for the time being.

The review is split into 104 sections, and so far, we have completed 
reviews of 8 of them.

CODING ERRORS
This is a repeat of the list from last week. Could you make sure you 
look at these posts please and check that they are done? Apologies to 
people who did do their corrections; it's just that the totals 
against some sections looked rather suspicious, and this is the 
quickest way of tracking them down!

Sean - all this means is that somehow a post has acquired both a 
reject code and a category code. This shouldn't happen, and it is a 
question of reviewing the post and deciding which it is to be.

5.6 Review Coding

PS In typing morsmordre, I am struck by the similarity in sound 
with 'Moor's murderer' - which in the UK is a reference to a very 
awful series of murders carried out by Ian Brady and Myra Hindley. 
They tortured and killed children up on the Yorkshire Moors in the 
1960s and have since become a byword for depravity. 

Hindley died recently in prison, but Brady is still alive. Some of 
the children's remains have never been found, and Brady, in 
particular, has played a long cat and mouse game with the authorities 
in trying to identify where he buried them. 

I just wondered if there was any association in JKR's mind when she 
devised the name for this skull sign.
