Either way, the recommendation stands. *Anything* in the data filed will preclude you from using the Missing Information search or inserting underlines for missing data.
Are you adding these individuals as unlinked individuals? Have you thought about tagging them as "uncertain where they fit"? Whether they're tagged or no, you can readily find unlinked individuals in the Miscellaneous tab in the Search window or by using View > Tree Finder. Also, you might want to include a To-Do item for the unlinked individuals with your task to find where they fit. I have a lot of unlinked individuals in my file who may be possibilities.
