I recently report an error with the title of a Guanajuato digitized film, and received a very nice reply:

Some Feedback from Family Search

I too have reported several errors in the titles, such as when it says "Bautismos 1700-1750" when it should say 1700-1780 or something like that. They respond that they will advise their "engineers" of the error.

However, the loss of the better indexing there was on Pilot and IGI is difficult to accept, and that they cannot or will not address.

George,

Thank you for pointing out this use of the FEEDBACK feature of FamilySearch. I have run across many errors in titles of records, such as Confirmaciones which were really Matrimonios. I will now do my part to help get the database cleaned up by reporting these mislabels.

I missed the previous communications. What is the feedback feature of Family Search?

"Feedback" is a brown "button" on the left side of the Record Search screens.

The purpose is for the user to give any feedback that they deem appropriate to improve the site. "Appropriate" is certainly at the user's discretion, but "appropriate" feedback, in my opinion, would be something that is relevant to the screen (or page) being viewed.
