Perceived Spelling Error

edit

In the T.V. series C.S.I the "investigadors" always match fingerprints with the IAFIS database.

It should be Investigators, correct?

Speed of a Submission - Submitted When

edit

It's not entirely clear what is meant by "submission" of fingerprints. First of all, the language in the article is the exact same language as in the FBI website that is cited in the footnote. It should probably be in quotes or it could be paraphrased. It probably wasn't because, as I said, the language is ambiguous. Is a submission the time that a fingerprint is first input into the system or is submission when a fingerprint is submitted for a search? I think it's the former because the second sentence says "IAFIS processed more than 61 million ten-print submissions during fiscal year 2010." When a print is submitted for a search, there's usually not a complete set of 10 prints. So it appears this is how long it takes to put the print into the system originally. Readers of Wikipedia might be more interested in how long it takes to do a search. 68.50.227.52 (talk) 21:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Possibly useful reference

edit

While editing the article on William S. Sessions, I added a link to this article, and removed a reference to a book on IAFIS as being a bit off track from that article's subject matter. In case it's useful to this article, here's what I removed:

"A full description of the IAFIS program can be found in Section 2.7 of the book: Automated Fingerprint Identification Systems (AFIS) published by Elsevier, Inc. in 2005; ISBN 0-12-418351-4."--NapoliRoma (talk) 20:56, 9 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Dubious

edit

The claim that standard background checks and gun purchases add information to IAFS seems like BS. Gun purchases only require a ATF 4473.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/how-do-gun-background-checks-work-a-look-at-the-current-system

Most civil background checks do not require submission of fingerprints. Sephiroth storm (talk) 21:00, 3 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Removed the reference to firearms purchases, as anyone who has ever bought a firearm at an FFL has filled out a Form 4473 and knows that you don't do fingerprints. MrThunderbolt1000T (talk) 15:33, 6 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
