Description

Feedback from Hasso:

  • Our participants generated a number of multi-word phrases that don’t belong in the dictionary. Marsha was able to filter for Vernaculars with spaces (good), but had to delete each entry one at a time with confirmation for each. Because her screen is small and the trash can is at the far left, she had to scroll back and forth to look at the vernacular and then delete each entry.
  • One user didn’t realise the need to scroll to the bottom of the list before clicking the arrow to navigate to the next page of ten.
  • Nice to have: bulk flag entries (say, if there are multiple words that may be misspelled).

Research direction

Start by locating the ReviewEntriesTable component and reviewing how filtering, per-entry deletion confirmation, and pagination currently work. The issue describes a need for more practical multi-entry deletion and possibly bulk flagging; completion should be defined by the selected bulk actions, confirmation behavior, and small-screen usability.
