Editing the profiles of my Slovak and Hungarian family.
Hi,
I have attempted to edit the profiles of my family via Recommended Tasks, but have ended up with 6 profiles that I was unable to complete the editing tasks for. I have dealt with the English and Scots profiles which leaves me with three profiles that fit under the heading of Austro-Hungarian Empire.
The profiles are FSID: LDRS-6QG, LHSM-FM9 and GSDL-BGF. I am not sure if the second profile pertains to a person who was associated with my family when she was alive. There could be answers on MyHeritage, but I am unable to access my site due to taking a break from my subscription.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Joanne.

I dismissed the record hint on Anna Kemka (LDRS-6QG), since Stomfa wasn't even in the same county as Zsolna. I assume that should remove her from your list. (I'm not LDS and I don't use the app, so I don't have a "Recommended Tasks" list anywhere. The closest I get is the record hints list on the homepage.)
It looks like you're partway through a legacy-data cleanup (aka "mergefest, oh joy") on Rozal Bicsak (LHSM-FM9): her daughter Maria currently has two sets of parents that should likely be merged (after checking the images from the baptismal register to make sure they're the same people). I made one correction in the family: Julis is a diminutive of Julia/Julianna, not a masculine name. When going through the record hints, pay close attention to every available detail, because it looks like the hinting engine is letting its anglo-centric roots show, suggesting a mother with a totally different surname as a match. Given the different church/district of the city, I highly doubt that they're the same people. (Szeged was and is Not A Small City.)
I don't know why Stephan Czagány (GSDL-BGF) is on your list, as I don't see any remaining hints or alerts on him. I have a small quibble on his birthplace and your reason statement about it: up to 1920, the town of Zsolna was in Trencsén county, Hungary. (The fact that Hungary's crowned head happened to be the same person as Austria's was largely irrelevant to the administrative setup. [Heck, he wore a different crown for the two jobs.]) In the Slovakian name/jurisdiction, kral is roughly "circuit, district"; the town is called simply Žilina in Slovak.
Just for "kicks and giggles" 😁, I looked at the various historical maps on Mapire:
1st military survey: Markt Zilina, Silein vel Solna [vel = Latin for "or"]
2nd military survey: Silein
3rd military survey: Sillein (Zilina) (Zsolna)
1910: Sillein (Zsolna)
1914: Zsolna

If you encounter a Hungarian record that you can't decipher, I'll be happy to help. (I can also usually figure out the sort of Latin that gets entered in registers.)

Thank you very much for your assistance. I will certainly no doubt ask for assistance from you in the future.
Stephan Czagány (GSDL-BGF) is my paternal grandmother's paternal line. On a Slovak census document the surname is listed as above but later chaged to Cagan / Caganova with the Slovak accents. I placed his data under the Hungarian heading as he was born geographically in Hungary. I did have a hint or two for him that I wasn't sure if they were correct or not.
