Because the Synchronizer results are not perfect, you will be asked to claim your publications and reject publications that are not yours. Elements sends you an automatic email alerting you to new publications, which are kept in a "Pending" queue until you claim or reject them. When you login to Elements, you will see a notification about these in your "My Actions" panel on your Home page.

When you click the "Claim publications" button (or click the link in the email you receive), you are brought to your My publications page, where you will see three "folders" labeled Mine, Pending, Not Mine, each displaying the number of publications in that folder.

On this page, you can review these recommendations and Claim or Reject each publication, depending on authorship. You can do this one by one using the buttons associated with each one, or click checkboxes and use the buttons at the top.

You manage these identifiers on a different screen:  choosing Data Source Search | Automatic claiming in the My Account menu under the Menu tab at the top of any of your Elements pages.

The Synchronizer identifies email addresses and unique identifiers in the metadata of publications that match your Search settings. Now it is asking you to tell it whether these in fact identify you (or if they belong to other authors). Notice that you can make any of three choices (Yes, No, Ignore). These are key to the effective use of these identifiers.

Clicking the link "Manage all identities" takes you to the Automatic publication claiming page, where these same identifiers are repeated. Below these are another three folders containing your identifier management decisions.

Normally, your MyID-based UGA email address has already been entered into your "Me" folder. Identifiers in this folder that are found by the Synchronizer associated with publications are automatically claimed for you (they bypass the Pending folder). If you use (or have used) another email address that could be associated with your publications, you should add it (Add email addresses link).

...

The links next to the icons for these third-party identifiers (or associated with other email addresses) take you to the third-party web sites to view these profiles; this allows you to confirm that this is not about you. For example the ORCiD link on the above example takes you to this ORCiD profile, which does not belong to you.

Thus, in this case, you would click on the "No" button associated with this ID, then confirm the popup, placing this ID in the "Not Me" folder; any time this ID is seen, the publication will automatically be rejected.
