Names, blanks, typos

In conjunction with our performance evaluations, we've reviewed some of the recent checks. In general, you're doing a good job. Here are a few things we've noticed that many people are struggling with:

• Names - Many of you regularly forget to change the name to match the manuscript. Some people help themselves remember to do this by always retyping the name, no matter what. Habits like this make it more difficult to forget something.
• Blanks - Please DO NOT leave any of the fields blank that have information on the manuscript. It looks like sometimes, the inputter ends up on the wrong field because of auto advance and misses some data or types it in the wrong field. Sometimes the inputter is looking at the wrong line of the manuscript. Other times, it's hard to read. If you need help reading something, please ask! Do not leave it out.
• Typos - Typos happen to even the best typist. We would like to minimize them.

It's all right to take a few seconds and scan over what you just entered to make sure it looks correct.
