Whenever an uploaded record is rejected, it is highlighted in yellow (list view only) and the reason for rejection is given in the Description field, along with the date of rejection.

There are two types of rejection: (1) record ineligible; (2) record eligible, but additional, improved or corrected images and/or information are requested from the recorder.

In the case of (1) the record will be removed from the database after three days. In the case of (2) the record will be removed from the database after three days if the recorder has not responded to the request.

Replies to requests for images and information should be posted on the UKDFD forum unless the requested information relates to hidden fields, in which case it may be communicated to a member of staff via the PM facility.
