England & Wales Probate Calendar - incorrectly standardised placename

Just to add one to the list for @SerraNola

Index record https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:W77Q-MHZM?lang=en in the "England and Wales, National Index of Wills and Administrations, 1858-1957" has incorrectly standardised.

The "Event Place (Original)" = London, and it has been standardised to "Diocese of London, Canterbury, Kent, England, United Kingdom". This is one of those where the drop-down arrow is present and it shows the second choice is "London, England, United Kingdom" - which, ironically (suspiciously?), is the correct value.

    I have noticed a ton of records that say "Calendar, Idaho, (or Ohio), United States" instead of the word Calendar. (As in "probate calendar")

    @J-3094 This was resolved in November of last year. If you see "Calendar, Idaho" popping up again, please post a URL. Thanks!
