Windows 10: Windows 10 Photo Tagging

I was an avid used or Windows Photo Gallery and have apparently wasted countless hours tagging photos that is no longer useful in the new Photos app (thanks alot Microsoft). That said, I have turned on the Face Recognition feature in Photos and have at least those tags. I have two questions:


1. How to I tell Photos to ignore people in the background (i.e., those I have no interest in tagging)

2. How do I edit incorrectly tagger photos?


Thanks.


P.S. - If anyone knows a way to get Photo Gallery back I will be forever grateful!
