Nice to see, unlike Ancestry, they linked the NAI person record id as well as the household return pdf.

About & Modifications show Findmypast standardised the data and cleaned some erroneous fields such as people married 100 years.
One might hope that during the phased release NAI intend using an algorithm to assist their OCR data QC, so it flags wives or husbands aged under 14 eg a silly 1, and the many N/A's where the OCR has failed to transcribe age, relation to head or religious denomination etc.

NAI Error Reporting facility added to all people so suggested corrections can be input/made directly rather than by form or email submission.

FAQ: New feature in development
We are developing a new feature that will allow the public to submit transcription updates directly, like the system used on the 1901/1911 Census pages. This tool will:
    ask users for the key information needed to review a correction
    automatically include a link to the relevant census record
    streamline how updates are submitted, reviewed, and applied.
