I can't get a gedcom junk report

The WT News dated 01 May informed me that WikiTree+ can find <GEDCOM-created profiles on your Watchlist> ... except that when I click on that statement it can't find anything??!! Actually, I do know that I have 100's of them + having just got AGC as a working tool, I have been blitzing loads. 

I would actually like a list to work through because I keep getting side-tracked & lose track of them. Is there one already that I've not found?

Please note, I am not a programmer.

Just to say I have the same issue. The URL

https://plus.wikitree.com/function/WTWebProfileSearch/Profiles.htm?Query=manager%3DFaichney-52+GEDCOMJunk

(from the Would you like to help improve GEDCOM-created profiles? article) results in 'Search text not found "manager=Faichney-52 GEDCOMJunk".'

I was privately shown how to get a report from Bio Check that does the trick...in How to find profiles = Check Watchlist, crank up the Max (3) Profiles fields high enough to cover all that might be in your Watchlist, in Profiles to report = Detailed Report, then in Search Biography for = <ref_0>

Click Check Profiles, then sort the results on the Search? field (the ones you are interested in show Found).

This worked for me because if I keep this as an open tab I am able to work my way down the list (I had hundreds to do). I just need to re-click the Check Profiles from time to time to clean off the ones I have resolved. The same report is also nagging me about Unsourced profiles & sometimes there just aren't any sourcessad
