- Using radio buttons, mark real Accepted candidates with "Acpt", leave bad Rejected candidates with "Rej". UPDATE, 24 Aug 2018: Mark any uncertain candidates with "Acpt". These will be further vetted by the Shepherd, so do not worry about accepting something that might not be real.
- There are usually several thousand candidates per night, and the vast majority will be bad/rejected
- You can limit how many stamps you see each time by adding a "maxStamps" parameter, like http://yupana.caltech.edu/cgi-bin/ptf/ssm/zsrs/review.cgi?maxStamps=2000
. These will be ordered by the ML score so those with higher scores will appear first.

- UPDATE 25 Jan 2019: There are usually around a thousand candidates per night, and the majority will be bad/rejected. The new Deep Streaks technique implemented by QZ has substantially decreased the number of candidates that need to be scanned nightly.

(3) Once done reviewing candidates, select your name from the drop-down box at the bottom of the page, and hit Submit
- This will put the accepted candidates on a separate web page

- For now (as of August 2018), QZ will then manually analyze each real candidate to link detections together and get astrometry to be sent to the Minor Planet Center
