My concern is that perfectly good data elicits a warning. I freely accept that the important stuff (magnitudes and their errors, star ids, date-time. filter, explen) goes through after checking. It’s the appearance and untidiness of an essentially useless warning that irritates me.

Perhaps if the chart ID was in a standard format (/^AAVSO X.+$/ for those who recognize Perl-style regexps, the database checking software could avoid issuing a warning.
