FMP Newspaper Transcriptions

[Kit]

Is there any way to correct the transcriptions?

I was searching for someone and had no results so searched on the surname for a particular year and found what I was looking for. The name is quite legible.

The brother in law is also mentioned and his translation is : "Riciiakii Rf.au"

I like Trove where you can make corrections and was wondering if FMP also have the facility?

They aren't exactly transcriptions as they are the product of OCR software.

It seems that you can correct the text on the British Newspaper Archive website but I expect you have to have a sub to that site or use credits:

I found this suggestion which was submitted to FMP last year:

Thanks Kate.

Looks like I have to pay to join so I'm not going to bother.
