Hi,

Last night and today I submitted a few IRs because I noticed that Bowman used an autograph that belongs to Jose R Batista (former RP in Pirates org) on a whole bunch of cards for Jose Bautista (the Blue Jays one) over several years. I figured they should be changed to UER and the 2002 Bowman cards that I initially submitted have been changed to UER (thanks to whoever did that).  Now, I just noticed that Topps used the same incorrect auto on their 2007 set and others afterwards.  Should I continue to submit IRs for each of these?  Or should I make a list of each card that should be changed?  Or is there a better way to figure this out?  

Thanks!

PS: This card, which is supposed to feature the outfielder Jose Bautista, not only included the incorrect autograph of his former teammate RP Jose Batista, but the photo is also of his teammate Jose Castillo, haha.  Topps really blew it on that one.

Good pick up!

I am not sure what permissions level you need to edit cards but do you have a "Turn Editing On" button visible below and to the right of the images on a particular card's page?  If you do, you can make the amendments as you find them.  If not, you may wish to work on getting the permissions level required (not sure where that happens).

@sandyrusty, I guess I do have the permissions for it, I didn't know.  Thanks!  I did all the tests and whatnot to raise my permissions level a while ago but I thought I had to be confirmed by an admin or something haha.

Just make sure you follow the rules about Note entries.  Capitals in the NOTE field and "UER: wrong autograph" or something similar in the Note 2 field.  In this case probably will need to specify that it is aa different Jose's signature.

This will help those who work on IR to focus on things some can't fix.  Thanks.

Just copy the text used in the 2002s and you'll be following site guidelines. I would know. :)

As of now I've fixed every card that I could verify had the autograph error.  I felt I shouldn't mark the SN1s and whatnot since I can't verify if they have the error or not.  Thanks for the tips!

If the SN1 are parallels of the cards that have the UER, then they would also have the UER. All parallels should have UER as well.
