How to report a error in Historical Base
Hello I discovered that in this collection there are records with the place "Paz, Candói, Paraná, Brasil". This is a error in the indexing, the cemitery is right, but the city should be Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais.
I would like to report and access the images to correct the record.
I discovered it based on the duplicated record of my great-uncle.

I was going to instruct you to use the Feedback button in Historical records to report this error, but I was not able to find that feature right now. So I am thinking you might be able to get some help in the Latin America group, which deals with records from Brazil. https://community.familysearch.org/en/group/115-latin-american-and-caribbean-research I will request that this post be moved there.

Looking more deeply into the issue, I think you did the right thing by editing the record. Here is a help article on correcting mistakes in indexed records. https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/fix-errors-in-historical-record-transcriptions-or-indexes I still think there should be a feedback button somewhere in the historical records where you can report the problem. I will look into this. Maybe someone else in the community has a suggestion or two that can help us.

I reported this problem with the form (same with Feedback and Suggest an Idea) some time ago and was assured that it was being looked at. I will chase it.
