Clicked on the "memorabilia" tab on the collection page hoping to see a listing of my memorabilia cards. Unfortunately it only picks up some of the cards because others re JSY cards or something else.Shouldn't the MEM cover all the memorabilia cards? 

Problem is this: A lot of sets have the specific piece of mem listed in the note field rather than MEM or JSY (those are the only 2 that show up in the memorabilia search, from what I remember). So all the ones that say PATCH or SEAT or PANTS, etc, will not show up. That info should be in Note2. That is something I have been fixing as I find them, but I haven't been hunting them down (working on the name validation mostly). Once we get that cleaned up, your reports should be much cleaner.

I'm a MEM guy. MEM in Note and specifics in Note2.  I also clean-up Notes as I come across them.

I knew I liked you for some reason. LOL! 

Looks like I have some cleaning up to do as well. So MEM (along with SN and/or AU if appropriate) but Note2 should be seat, shoe, pants, etc...right?

I have had a long day .............. again I must sadly disagree. Why? The below is directly from the info in Permissions Level 4. Why would Admin show JSY in the Note field if it was not a valid Note. I have asked Admin specifically about MEM, JSY, PATCH and I though I had been told that they were acceptable things to put there. I tried combing through three years of emails to find it but alas I am empty handed so all I have to go on is what I have copied below. Admin, we need a final answer PLEASE!!!!

"Access to this level requires an understanding of the following concepts:

• Notes should be short, capitalized notations. (ie. AU, LL, JSY, etc.)"

It's a NOTE. A note, not a description.  MEM lets you know there is memorabilia on the card. Like AU lets you know there's an autograph on the card. UER and ERR let you know there's an error on the card. VAR lets you know there is a variation. And Note2 is the proper place to put the explanation and specifics for the Note.  For example; VAR: white letters; ERR: misspelled name, MEM: hockey stick. 

We don't need specifics in Note, we need specifics in Note2.

From a Note edit page:

Notes should be short, capitalized notations (ie. AU, MEM, SN99, etc.). Longer explanations should be posted to the Note2 field.

Note2's edit page has no guidelines.

C2C couldn't have explained it better. Thank you!

Wow ...... Admin?!

Thanks to all for the clarification.
