SUMMARY This is a wish, but rather critical. I would like to be able to move faces from unconfirmed to ignored. If I assign the "Ignored" tag, then the entire pic has the tag, but it is not associated with the specific face (actually the same is true when assigning a People tag from the right-click context menu: it is a tag for the pic, not for the face, and it's confusing). I have so many pictures that I need to be able to ignore faces while confirming the others, since I cannot afford to then go back to the full library (unknown) and find again all these useless faces that I don't care about and that are slowing down the algorithm. Thanks. Cheers, STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. 2. 3.

The "Ignored" tag is virtual, assigning it does nothing. In the People View you can ignore unknown faces by pressing the "-" button in the thumbnail overlay. In the unconfirmed view, you first have to make the face unknown again in order to ignore it later. That's the way to go. There is no provision for unconfirmed faces to be ignored directly. Since usually the unknown faces are looked through and sorted out first. The face recognition processes this unknown faces pool, should be "cleaned up" here first. Maik

Too bad for me :( I guess I'll have to fork the project and look for my own solution to this. It really does not make sense to me, with 80k images, and about the same amount of detected faces.
I do not understand your problem. You can also mark many faces and add them all at once to the ignored ones by pressing the "-" button. Is it just about ignoring from the unconfirmed faces? Maik
I understand his workflow, since mine is quite similar. When I have a bunch of new images, my tagging workflow is like this. 1. select all, choose "Search for faces" context menu 2. while this is running, do geotagging and rating 3. When (1) is finished, look at each image, tag / confirm faces I do not use the "Faces" sidebar to confirm faces after importing, I use it only to find images by face. So while looking at a *photo* I would like to have all four options of a) confirm / tag / correct face tag b) delete this face / this is not a face c) ignore this face right below the rectangle. Currently, I can only "reject" from Unconfirmed, and "ignore" from Unknown faces categories. This surely is one possible workflow, but why not make the options consistently available everywhere and thus also suit other workflows?
Fixed with #432140
