To view and vet comments posted on records from your collection, navigate to the Administration Control Panel: My Profile > Occurrence Management > name of collection and click “View Posted Comments.” If there is no orange text to the right of this option, you have no comments that have not yet been reviewed.

On the Comments Listing page, you can:

• hide comments from the public (in cases of sensitive or personal data)
• mark comments as reviewed (i.e., you have resolved the issue described by the comment)
• delete comments (in cases of spam or inappropriate content)
• view specimen records associated comments by selecting the URLs above comment details (catalog number, collector, collector number, and date)

In the event that you have many comments to work through, you use the Filter Options box (top right) to view only comments that were posted by a certain user, have a certain status (public/non-public/reviewed), or were posted within a certain date range.
