Images search - film mislabeled

So I was preparing a lesson for my family history consultants. I've been working with this group of records (https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/results?count=20&query=%2Bfilm_number%3A103243087) in my personal research and wanted to show how to find them in the images search. I looked for them there and instead found that they are mislabeled on images as France, Franch Comté, Jura, St. Claude, St. Claude. But they are in Canada, Quebec, Richmond, St. Claude. Is there any way to get those relabeled in the images search so that people can actually find them in an image search?

    Sometimes it is a momentary glitch. I looked at the record set within just a few minutes after you posted.

    I've found records that showed to be mislabeled, but a refresh of the page showed them in the correct slot. With so many records on the site, and new ones being added every day, it's easy for the system to have a hiccup now and then.

    Am I missing something? The link you posted goes to

    Québec, Richmond, Saint-Claude registres paroissiaux, 1900-1912

    It's been corrected. The problem was that if you searched for these films in an image search (i.e., click Search and the Images) they were under France, not Quebec. I just rechecked and they are now in the correct place. So someone already made the fix!

    I miss a general email, where to report mislabeled records/films.

    Currently, I have film number # 007471643, marked Vevlinge on page 3 in hand writing.

    https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-89Z6-NFFB?i=2&cc=2078555

    it is the indexed to Verninge, Odense, Odense, Denmark - it should have been indexed to Veflinge, Skovby, Odense, Denmark. There are several such films, where the hand writing with old or alternative spellings leads to erroneous results.
