As a result of a review, we found some points considered to be mistakes in the documents as follows.
Please provide your view on whether they should be corrected.
In this case, if I say "whether they should not be corrected", will the meaning change?
Will it mean the writer is saying "they should be corrected, shouldn't they?"
Thank you.
P.S. I guess some people would say it should be "whether or not they should be corrected", but the writer isn't just asking Yes or No here. The writer thinks "They should be corrected, shouldn't they?"
