Incorrect results from cemetery report?

I'm working on Chatham County Categories, and I'm a little confused about these report results. I'm in WIkitree Cemeteries, North Carolina, Chatham County, Mulitple Categories BIg.

There is one location, Hadley Township, Chatham County, North Carolina/Chatham County North Carolina.

Listed in this location are two cemeteries, Mount Vernon United Methodist Church Cemetery, Siler City, North Carolina, and Mount Olive Baptist Church Cemetery, Alamance, North Carolina.

I checked FindAGrave and the categories on WT. Both have the correct FindAGrave ID in their respective infobox .

Why is this showing up in the report? Is there a glitch in the logic?

I'm linking to a screenshot so you know exactly what I'm talking about.Screenshot

The report does not update immediately, and the correction was made on the 11th.

{{kicks self}} Should have checked the change history.

I just noticed something kinda useful - there's a data timestamp at the bottom of those reports!  Good for sanity...cool

My understanding of it is that the profile under the cemetery that is highlighted red has added the main cemetery category, however, their FindAGrave citation shows the other cemetery. 

So Johnson-151748 has the cemetery category for Mount Vernon United Methodist Church Cemetery, however, the citation on the profile actually lists Mount Olive Baptist Church Cemetery. The category on the profile needs to be corrected to whatever cemetery is in the actual citation.

It sounds like it's already been corrected, but thought I would still share in case you come across it again. :)
