    Link rescued from the Community's link-eating bot/process: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSS1-GSW1-9?i=1671&cc=1584557. (Easiest way to avoid feeding it is to not give links their own line and/or not hit "enter" after them.)

    Once an index has been published, FS does not allocate any of its limited resources to correcting the indexing of individual pages. Sometimes errors at the level of entire films (metadata errors) are eventually fixed, but there are large backlogs and no timeframes available.

    However, individual users can edit many indexes, including this Quebec census page. In fact, this Canadian census has the new "edit everything" tool, which means that lines that were missed can be added, and relationships/groupings can be corrected.

    @Marcel Blais It seems there are more individuals who have been indexed if you view the census from Search>Images>DGS 101692823>Image 1672 link: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSS1-GSW1-9?view=index&groupId=TH-909-56692-58900-29
