How to change records attributed to wrong place
I have found some records that appear to be inaccurate. For example:
Female1817–1838 •G794-TF4
Born, baptized, died in Weiler, Rems-Murr-Kreis https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QPG6-3MSW
She is also listed in Germany Births and Baptisms, same parents and same dates, but in a different Weiler, 50 miles away: Weiler, Rottenburg. I looked at these records, and they are attributed to the wrong Weiler.
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NCQV-8LV
The same is true many of her relatives. I believe someone misattributed the second set of records to the wrong Weiler. How do I report this and/or get it corrected?
The second set of records are the ones that are attributed to the correct place.
Thanks in advance!

@Jean Herrmann Thank you for alerting us to the place standardization error. We will get it reported. Because of the large number of record sets that the team maintains, we are not able to predict how long it will take for a correction to be in place.

The placename standardization bot strikes again. @N Tychonievich please and thank you.

@N Tychonievich After re-reading my comment, it seemed confusing. I hope you understood what I was trying to say. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NCQV-8LV are the records that need to be changed to Weiler, Rems-Murr-Kreis, oa Schorndorf, Wuerttemberg.
Thanks for your attention to this matter. No problem if it takes a while to correct the place standardization, as long as it is eventually corrected. I would hate for less experienced family historians to be as confused as I was!
