This decision tree is entered from the [general decision tree](https://gitlab.lis-lab.fr/PARSEME-FR/PARSEME-FR-public/wikis/Guide-annotation-PARSEME_FR-chapeau) in which a _candidate sequence c_ referring to a specific entity has been identified. At this step some doubts may remain as to: (i) _c_ being a conventionalized name (e.g. Anne Duval) vs. a non-conventionalized naming expression (e.g. _désormais célèbre réalisateur du documentaire Merci patron !_), (ii) the precise left and right span of _c_ (e.g. as to the inclusion of classifiers like _la *laiterie* Besnier_ or of adverbials like _La Croix-Rouge française *de Blois*_. These doubts may be dispelled in Step 1 (tests Acron and WebPage) or in Step 2.

-**Step 1** - perform the (fuzzy) **NE identification** tests
-**Step 2** - if _c_ has been identified as a fuzzy NE in step 2, apply the **span tests**
