**: Several NY editors have put together [//j.mp/NYvalidator a localization pack for Validator] which will increase Validators effectiveness. It highlight issues specific to NYS while you're in NY, as well as some national issues wherever you are. It also fixes some built in validator checks so they are more accurate ''(e.g. removes highlight from N.)''.
**: More information on the localization package, and a changelog showing updates, etc. is available on the [//j.mp/NYvalidator scripts Greasyfork.org page].
**: It is highly recommended you install and keep this package running alongside Validator all the time. Individual checks can be turned in the validator search settings by typing <code>!###, *</code> (### = the check number).
