How to fix Event Place on multiple pages?
In this collection the Event Place seems to be all wrong for most records. It is either Alaska (!) or some odd location in Black Sea governorate. The correct high level entry would be Olonets. Then in individual records the places should fall within that administrative district.

How can we fix this? Event Place is not accessible when trying to edit the indexed data.
Actually I could not see any button to report the problem on these pages. Thanks

@Juha Nevalainen Actually, because these are errors in the historical records collections of FamilySearch, it should be reported in Feedback on a search page to get to the right engineering team. Not to worry, though, as this Search category in Community is also closely monitored for technical issues.

@Juha Nevalainen If you open the record you posted above and click Edit, you should see a Feedback button for the specific record set.

This is an apparent placename standardization algorithm problem rather than an indexing error. You'll find many reports of similar issues in this community over the last several years.
If the page has a Feedback button, you can use that to report a problem with the entire collection.
