Hey all,

What is the protocol for multiple points with the same case for a document?

1. Whenever I find a line related to a case should I annotate it to provide more evidence for that case, or should I only create one point, and add the other pertinent lines in my analysis.

2. Will the service double count cases if multiple points are made with them for a certain document, thus effecting their score?

I tried checking the wiki, particularly [Phoenix for beginners](https://tosdr.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/GUIDE/pages/166035885/Phoenix+for+beginners), but could not find info on it. Also the _Do’s and Don’t’s_ link is broken for @Peepo’s Topic.

Thanks

Hey,  
We try to avoid duplicate points as they interfere with the score (see [How are classifications calculated](https://tosdr.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/GUIDE/pages/166101145/How+are+classifications+calculated) for details).

If you find two quotes that could fit with a case, I’d recommend your second proposal:

As a curator, your task would also be declining duplicate points other users may have created so that ratings reach the maximum of accuracy.
