Description Adam Spiers 2011-01-31 17:51:39 UTC 
Version:           2.0.0 (using KDE 4.5.5) 
OS:                Linux

With latest svn, I scanned a small album, detected some faces, manually tagged them, then scanned again using "Clear results and rescan", but the tagged faces were still there.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Marcel Wiesweg 2011-02-10 22:07:59 UTC 
Only unconfirmed results will be cleared - we will only touch machine generated information, not user confirmed data. So this bug is mostly due to wording that leads to misunderstanding?
Comment 2 Adam Spiers 2011-02-11 00:06:05 UTC 
Yeah I guess so.  But how can the user tell which data is confirmed or not (except by remembering) ?
Comment 3 Marcel Wiesweg 2011-02-11 21:05:40 UTC 
Unconfirmed faces will have the Confirm/Reject buttons. Confirmed faces will not. We need to offer the possibility to group by confirmed/unconfirmed, but that will become acute only when recognition works well.
Comment 4 Adam Spiers 2011-02-16 16:47:39 UTC 
Please can we at least improve the clarity of the wording?  "Clear results and rescan" confused me and it will almost certainly confuse other users, so I don't think it's sufficient to just resolve as WORKSFORME.  Thanks.

Suggestions are welcome, especially if you are a native speaker
Comment 6 S. Burmeister 2011-02-17 19:19:51 UTC 
"clear unconfirmed results"
Comment 7 Adam Spiers 2011-02-18 11:29:08 UTC 
or even "clear unconfirmed results and rescan"
