A question about timeline status "titles".  My "filed for" status is "Naturalization (Pending)" but we are through the Citizenship process.  Is there some way to change my status to "Naturalization (Completed)" or "Naturalization (Successful)".  When someone posts a date in the "Oath Ceremony" section, and that date passes, should the status change? 

 

Ah, I see TBoneTX has "Naturalization (Approved)".  How did his status change?  I've filled out my timeline completely.  What did I do wrong?

Tiny bug (which I'm not sure if it has been noted yet). 

https://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/80-k-1-fiancee-visa-process-amp-procedures/

^I think the slug for this is using/encoding the ampersand from the page title into 'amp' when the slug should probably use 'and' instead.

Another tiny bug.

I'm assuming that it follows some formula/algorithm based on the submitted data, but the AOS stats for Chicago, IL aren't quite right.
https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/aosstats.php

Right now for Avg. Days btw Decision Date and Receiving Green Card it's listed as -1 days 😆
I'm thinking it could probably be updated to just say 0 days if the value in that column is less than 0 (or any of the columns for that matter).

I think the issue is bad data. For instance:

They received their green card almost 8 months before they interviewed for it? 🤯

Or that 😮
Although I guess it would be a bit more work to validate that 'dateB' comes after 'dateA for all the forms.

I got a unique problem.  I did a name change a few days ago. Somehow completely by accident I changed my name back to one that was a closed account from a few years ago. Now when I try to login from a desktop it says account banned. Closed at users request. ( this was before I paid the money for my platinum membership) 

 

Anyway I am still logged in on my phone. If I log off here I am toast. 

 

Do I have any options other than creating a new account.  If so no biggie

There's some cases of typos in dates that are throwing the K-1 stats wayyyy off. Somebody may want to update the query to reject such types of dates (i.e. 900-1000 years in the future).

I haven't noticed this until recently (was it in an update or was I just blind?), but photos have an option to view the EXIF data.

 

While I understand it's the responsibility of individuals to only upload information they want others to see, the "Artist"/Photographer" field has the poster's name in it if they set this either via software or their camera. Typically this type of information is scrubbed or anonymized when made available to others, unless explicitly desired (i.e. user photo-centric websites). I could give some examples via PM, but don't want to reference them here to maintain their privacy.

Good catch. I agree EXIF data should be stripped from user uploaded images.
