Tag errors are easy to miss. That’s why LILT’s Auto Review automatically searches for potential tag errors for you, saving time and effort. This article goes over using Auto Review for finding tag errors. To learn more about tags in general, see the Tags & Formatting article.

​
Running Full QA Checks

To reveal tag errors across all segments in a document, open the File tab and click Run full QA check.
To run QA Checks on a single segment, click on the QA button on the right side of the segment.
After running QA Checks, if any potential tag issues are found, they will be highlighted in LILT Translate. Note that the QA Checks also searches for and displays Linguistic Errors. Hover over any tags highlighted by the QA check to see information and suggestions about the tag error.
Issues with tag placement are typically found around punctuation, whitespace, or numbers. These types of tag errors can be easily overlooked, so utilizing LILT’s QA Checks to automatically search for them is a good way to ensure accuracy.
