| //**Please note:** If there are many duplicate candidates it might be easier to check the records one by one. To do that, you start with “Hide all” (which turns all candidates grey) and then re‐activate the first candidate and see if it is a duplicate or not. If it’s not, uncheck it and go to the next. If it is, you could click the other button next to the check mark (the one with the three stripes on it) to switch the record’s colour to white before you proceed with the next record. So you’d know that everything that’s white is checked and “ok” and the amount of different colours is a little less confusing.// | //**Please note:** If there are many duplicate candidates it might be easier to check the records one by one.
