URL-encoding (percent encoding) appears in the comments when attaching records.
This is a recent issue. It happens consistently. I am using the Chrome browser and it is up-to-date.
Example, M5HX-TQY.
I attached a census record to members of this family and included (in the "Reason This Source Is Attached" section) the comment, "1880 US Census. George CRANCE, wife Anna, and one child at Van Etten, Chemung Co, NY."
When viewing in Sources, the comment appears, "1880%20US%20Census.%20George%20CRANCE%2C%20wife%20Anna%2C%20and%20one%20child%20at%20Van%20Etten%2C%20Chemung%20Co%2C%20NY."
The encoding makes the comment difficult to read. How do I eliminate this behavior so I can include useable content in the "Reason" section?
Thank you, in advance, for your assistance.
Notes:
1) Issue is not limited to US census records. Same result when attaching US pension record.
2) I had posted this issue to "Questions" and was directed to post to "Ideas."

Language Erosion Attaching Sources 2-3 February 2021???
Is anyone else having difficulty with language attaching sources yesterday and today? For example, I type "United States Census, 1910, Household of Jacob L Davis (Head)," and the program changes it to "United%20States%20Census%2C%201910%0AHousehold%20of%20Jacob%20L%20Davis%20(Head)."
.

.
I suggested they BOTH post in, BOTH,
(1) THIS Forum; and,
(2) ALSO submit 'FamilySearch' "Support" Cases
.
Submitted for your IMMEDIATE, information; attention; and, consideration.
