This person has multiple sources attached from the same census year and is most likely incorrect.
In Finland the record collection of "Finland, Church Census and Pre-Confirmation Books, 1600-1916" contains communion and children books from different Church archives.
These are not similar than USA censuses and therefore those Source Tagging Quality Score rules should not apply!
These books usually contain about 10 year period in one book and for every year person's communion attendance was marked on the record. In these books, people were entered by their residence and when people moved during one period, their information was crossed over on their previous residence and added to their new residence.
If person was a worker, maid, farm hand etc. they ofter moved every year, so it is possible that their information is on one "census" record even 10 times!
Thus this reason Quality Score - Source Tagging error mesage "This person has multiple sources attached from the same census year and is most likely incorrect." in collection of
"Finland, Church Census and Pre-Confirmation Books, 1600-1916"
Should be removed, so we don't need to dissmiss that from tens of thousands of Finnish people.

@Heidi Kuosmanen Thanks for the feedback!
We will definitely look into adjusting our algorithm. One of the engineers may reach out for more information.
Thanks!1 -
If the engineers want to contact me and have more information, the easiest is to contact me on Teams. I am on FamilySearch Operations - FHD.
