I am wondering if it's possible to do a mass elimination of undesired "face boxes".
For instance, I take photos at an event - like a roller derby game. There are a few friends in attendance whose faces i would like to note so that I can retrieve those images at some point in the future. However, of course LR detects hundreds of faces on hundreds of images that I have taken (the players, fans, etc.) - none of which I need to add to metadata.
As an example I have attached a screenshot showing that "Brandon"s face was confirmed 35 times and LR is "wondering" if that's him in 5153 other instances. Now I know for sure that none of those other faces LR detected are him (or anyone else I care to put into the metadata) but going through each individual image and deleting the "facebox" is, to say the least, sub-optiimal.
I've been going into each image individually and manually deleting the face-boxes that are not needed, but of course that takes a lot of time.
So, is there a way to do that en masse? My hope would be to clean up the data (that is, confirm the correctly identified faces) and when I see a few hundred (or more) noted as "Similar" but which are in fact nothing I want to denote to have a command that will simply remove all those unconfirmed face boxes.
Is it there and I am missing the command? Or is it not possible?
