BUG: Source Linking Doesn't Display the information to be attached
Trying to attach Census Records and the information to be attached displays but when Compare is clicked, the information disappears and cannot be attached. See images. The information is not already attached. This example is 1915 NY Census. The same thing is happening with other census records.

Hello @Ronald P. Tilby, Great question. And if it is a system problem your comment should raise attention.
My first inclination when faced with this kind of problem is to delete my browser cookies.
I couldn't even find the New York, US State Census, 1915 on FamilySearch. :(
I did find it on ancestry.com.

I hope this is helpful.
Perhaps FS is working on the problem with the 1915 NY State Census on FS.

As reported elsewhere, the 1861 England & Wales collection is currently not allowing for Residence detail to be carried across. I checked all other collections (1841-1911) and they seem to be working fine.

This thread is a nightmare. What is happening with the FamilySearch system these days?

This was been reported to FS Support 25 July 2022 and they responded with "There is currently a system problem attaching many of the records using the Source Linker. The engineers are working on this and have asked us to apologize for the problem and to let you know that it will get fixed. However, we do not yet have an anticipated resolution date so your patience is requested and is appreciated."
