How do I get an obituary record that lists the wrong place corrected?

The “standardization” algorithm (or AI) for the obituary record indicated below has selected a completely wrong place.

"United States, Obituary Records, 2014-2023", FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XMLH-N7VL : Thu Nov 28 13:09:53 UTC 2024), Entry for Mary Alice Severs and Jack Goymerac, 31 March 2023.

The Death Place was in the city of Greenville, Bond County, Illinois, United States. It did NOT occur in the state of Wisconsin.

I sent an e-mail requesting the correction to nasupport quite a while ago, but have not received a reply.

How can I get that record corrected?

I am waiting for the correction before I attach the record to the people.

Thanks, and regards.

    That obituary comes from the collection

    The line "Index courtesy of Domega, Inc." is the essential information. Domega is a data aggregator.
    There have been a few threads of complaint about indexes from Domega.

    There is an explanation of how to edit in this thread:

    Thank you very much, Áine.ní.Donnghaile.

    I was able to correct the record from the instructions provided.

    I never would have found that method on my own.

    Thanks again and best regards.
