Thanks for bringing this to my attention. In Deschutes he has entered
something like 125 checklists, most with one bird on it all with a location
“Deschutes” in Deschutes County. I have marked the ones with multiple birds
Not Public, but I don’t really feel like opening the 102 remaining checklists
all with one bird Not Public. There doesn’t seem to be quick way to banish
multiple checklists. Should I just mark them all “unconfirmed?”

When he emailed me, he said something about entering his grandfather's lists.
I agree with Dave. I think all of his stuff is not valid.

Yes
But when you mentioned Gribble Road that sparked a light.
I do "know this guy" Why i couldn't find any of his lists in the Search.
Using the User ID = USER351522
HERE <https://review.ebird.org/admin/review.htm?sortBy=date&o=desc> are his
sightings
But HERE <https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S53090147> is one. It is missing
one bird that i invalidated; Eurasian Dotterel.
He first submitted it for 2018. I contacted him but he never got back to me.
Then the same list showed up for 1969. This went to the back of my queue and i
missed it for a while.
I invalidated the Dotterel.
HERE <https://review.ebird.org/admin/observer.htm?userID=USER351522> is his
eBird Profile.

Something weird going on with this guy. He had an eBird profile when I first
looked at his checklists. Now it's not there.

When I was able to see his eBird profile, the list of recent checklists that
shows up on the right side of the screen included a few from Clackamas County
with Gribble Road as the location. That's where he lives according to the
email that I got from him.
Very strange. I guess I'll just mark all of his Jackson and Josephine county
checklists "Not For Public."

Here's a link to a checklist he submitted last year.
Notice he says all Jackson County locations near Ashland.
But if you click the location link, it shows that he dropped the pin in
downtown Grants Pass.

Hello All--
Have any of you had experience with an eBirder named Christopher Nichols ? He
submitted some checklists from Jackson County recently, and they were unusual
to say the least. And, a search of earlier checklists (from 2018 when I wasn't
reviewer) turned up some really bizarre lists.
My email to him produced a response that seemed as unusual as his checklists.
He lives in Clackamas County, and I've tried to contact Joe Blowers but have
received no response.
I'm inclined to mark all of Nichols' checklists "not for public," but maybe
there are some circumstances of which I'm not aware.
Thanks for any info you can provide.
