Problem
Recent Example:
Go to John Robinson PID 9WRC-CDX
Click --Sources (6)
Open the 1863 source
Notice the “Event Date” shows “From 1863-1873” and should be showing 30 Oct 1872 instead.
This is likely preventing the system from finding possible duplicates.
Also tried a “Work Around” by using the “Add Additional fields” but there was not any choice on the list such as “ Event Date”; “Christening Date” ; or “ Baptism Date
I am finding other records that likewise are showing the same problem. Hopefully this is a System problem and not an Indexer putting in the wrong information.
Another problem I have run into is that the film titles are not always correct: Example: Church of England records are being shown as Non-Conformist. Wondering if the Title from Item 1 is being used for all of the other Items on the film, which are often records from other locations. Again is this a system problem or and Indexer problem?
Thank you.

The gremlin, currently creating havoc with the Viewer/Editor, has gobbled up the index and locked the record.
No indexed data visible:
This record set belongs to the City of Liverpool. The index may have been created by them and imported. I noticed another record on the same page has a similar event date.
There is a thread here on the known issues with the viewer/editor.
