Difficulty with completing South Africa DRC Church Registers

I am currently getting batches of Church Registers that require us to use a "Reference Image" for some of the dates.

https://www.familysearch.org/indexing/batch/f78fb3c9-081e-4b9b-98f8-6a27a750c4c4

[M3X3-JVM]

Some of the event dates are on "My Batch" and some names have the event dates on the +1 image. Some also have the Event Place on these +1 reference images.

Some of the batches come up with nothing but the second page of dates without names. I have been marking these "No, No extractable data," and returning them. The dates on these pages will be lost without us using the +1 reference image to find them.

Have others had these same issues?

Most of these batches are from Afrikaaner areas with Afrikaaner names, not Dutch.

    I accidentally finished the batch and returned it. So you won't find the batch.

    I have seen a few other batches with the same issue that other indexers have used the +1 and +2 Reference Images to add dates to the names.
