some droids cannot be rooted, mine for instance. i think it would be a deterrent if we had to photograph and upload proof for every report. still, verification of the dino in the village is important to the sanity of the chart-keepers, so a simple standard of requiring a tiny ID from new contributors might suffice. with no screenshot or no ID, no chart edit.

in my opinion, it does not seem to be asking for too much to confirm data that we publish here. for Reddit AskMeAnythings the parent posters had to supply a twitter photo, iirc. we have such small data sets here, people are inclined to leap after seeing a single point. the other way that occurs to me is to demand a second and independent data point before a new cell on a chart is populated. either way confirmation seems like a good idea to me. i would rather see bad data struck off than charted too. good luck!
