forum How to remove wrongly assigned entities from doc analyses

So the AI wrongly assigned names of characters and deities as locations, and I’m wondering if there’s any way to remove/fix this?

Usually, the right way to go would be @andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer).

But also, can you make the pages public perhaps so I can see what exactly it is that you're saying?

@ZoeVictoria The way to remove any entity from a document analysis is to click on the menu icon on it to get an expanded view (or click on the character/location's image to get the same view).

At the bottom of that view there's a button for removing the page from the analysis.

I'm not actually sure how easy/doable this is with a screen reader. If you have any problems with it, I'm happy to manually remove things from analyses for you until I've got something more accessible. Just shoot me a PM any time. :)

@ andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer) what if the entities don’t match any pages I created, and are just what was detected?

@Kyomi_naidesu I’m not comfortable doing that at the moment, sorry.

Basically what’s happening for example is that I wrote about a character named Bob and it correctly assigned Bob as a character, but also added a location named Bob also. Hopefully that clears things up.

So. Correct me if I'm wrong. When you made a character page named Bob, a location page named Bob was also created??

@ZoeVictoria When you click "Remove this location" (or "Remove this character") buttons in the analysis, it's referring to just removing them from that analysis (and the AI treating things like it hadn't detected them in the first place), rather than removing any actual worldbuilding pages, so you should be fine to remove any that aren't accurate, even if they don't correspond to an existing page you have. Does that make sense? I can see how the wording is actually pretty confusing here, so I'll do some tweaking and try to make it a bit clearer.

@Kyomi_naidesu This is in a document analysis, so it's not creating any pages; it's attempting to link what is written about in a document to pages that are already created (and guessing at what type of page they might be based on how they're referred to in the document). Sometimes it gets things wrong. For example, the phrase "I went to Dale with a message" in a document could detect "Dale" as either a character or a location – or both – and sometimes needs the author's help after the fact to remove the wrongly-assigned entities.

Ah, I see.

I figured out how to do this a while ago, thanks for the help. just a little more clarification, I didn’t actually write about a character named Bob, that was just an example to help people understand the problem i was having.
