Comment 6 for bug 1797418

With 3.8 we are seeing this issue again. However, we discovered that there is a "rogue" alert note in some templates that appears to have been suppressed in some versions of Evergreen. The notes are not in the proper format.

Rather than:

 "copy_alerts": [ {"note": "Shelved in Children's Workroom. Check out only to library staff.", "temp": "f","alert_type": 101}],

They are:

"copy_alerts": [], "alert_message": "3 DISCS",

or just:

"alert_message": "3 DISCS",

I suspect that they are from an error in template creation in an earlier version, perhaps in XUL. They may be an artifact left behind when an alert message was added in error to a template, and then deleted. Also, added and deleted prior to the newer alert system where you can set when the alert occurs.

If you either delete all instances of the rogue alert or delete the template and recreate it, the alert is no longer added to the item.
