Mariage bann but no actual mariage
I have an interesting case: there are two hints on Bartholomé Vasanne (9VRS-M5P) linked to mariage banns between Jean Joseph Vasaune (LTTZ-Y1T) and Marie Antoinette Wilquet (9V5V-RR1). The "problem" is that they never married, how do I represent that in the tree?
Change event type of a record
How can you change the event type of a record? The record https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:6VSW-74FR?lang=en is not a mariage but a mariage bann. If I click on edit, I can change almost everything except the event type.

Low quality images
Hi again! I've noticed that the digital images for some microfilms are of unusually low quality. Specifically, this is very noticeable on film 1328740 (starting at Item 3) and film 1328441 (Items 8-10). It seems to be an issue with the digital files rather than the original microfilms, as the file sizes and image…
Full name review - unable to select name
In Full Name Review quite often either the given name or surname is not highlighted. No problem just select NO and attach the name part not highlighted. Occasionally, in the past, the name part not highlighted could not be selected. Lately this has been happening quite frequently. Either the surname or given name is not…
Miami, Kansas, United States is not the same as Miami, Linn, Kansas, United States
The 1885 Miami County, Kansas State Census can apparently be entered in at least two different ways.
