Discrepancies in Denmark Census links

KariM

Today as I was working on Jens Peter Christensen (KL7R-VWF) he had two census hints: the 1845 and 1850 Danish censuses. The 1850 seemed to load correctly.

The problem I discovered is this:

When looking at SourceLinker to link the 1845 to the folks in Jens' family, if I click on "View Image" at the top of the page, it takes me to the wrong image (entirely wrong location).

BUT if instead I click on the "View Record" option on the Source linker page, then click on the thumbnail image that appears at the bottom of the "Record Information" panel on the right, that takes me to the correct census image.

Here is the 1845 example:

https://www.familysearch.org/en/search/linker?ark=/ark:/61903/1:1:QLRJ-B5N7&id=KL7R-VWF&hinting=/tree/person/details/KL7R-VWF

I'm grateful for all of you amazing folks who figure out how to remedy the problems we find a long the way in FamilySearch.

Blessings-

@KariM I will see if I can get this to a proper expert. Hopefully, an answer is on the way.

@KariM Thank you for taking the time to flag this as an error. After looking into it, I can confirm that the problem is with the underlying record data itself — not a bug in Source Linker. The incorrect film and image number are tied specifically to the data for Jens Peter Christensen. There are a few known causes for this type of error and this will be sent for further analysis.

The good news is that this appears to be isolated to this one family. I checked other records indexed on the same image and nearby ones, and no others seem to be affected. I noticed you were already able to attach the correct image in your tree and apologize for the extra hassle it caused you.
