Action: Adding party with ownership date "in the 18th century"
Expectation: "in the 18th century"
Reality: Date changes to "in the 19th century"

It appears that it adds a century, so to get the appropriate one, you've got to aim one down. Standard date weirdness?

If it helps-
It's oddly specific. If there's something before "in the xy century", the date doesn't change. So
"1500 until the 18th century" works fine with no change.

"until the 18th century" will change to "until the 19th century".

That does help, actually.  I’ll write a test for it and fix it.

Can you provide the exact line that’s causing issues, with what you’re trying to say with it?  I’m trying to figure out how “in the 19th century” fits into a provenance records.

My original intent was to write "Until sometime in the 18th century" but that converts to "in the 18th century". Then I found another bit of information and was able to add "1500 until the 18th century"

This is the record currently in KE:
"commissioned by Confraternity of St. Augustine, Perugia, Italy, 1500 until the 18th century"

When I noticed it happening, I just had "Confraternity of St. Augustine, Perugia, Italy, [until sometime] in the 18th century"
