==The tool==
 
===The pass===
One pass will check all place objects whatever type (town, region, country, street, etc.) and will retrieve the current place title, which is related to our preferences set : the displayer.
Once a legacy title does not match current auto-title or is not empty, this can generate some frustrations
and confusions. So, this one pass tool will list entries not matching.
 
===Columns===
 
Two columns :
 
* the hardcoded and legacy place title, also visible on Place Editor without auto-title support (see Preferences on Display item)
* the displayed title
===Why radio-buttons are checked?===
According to your preferences, the default selection will either check all entries with differences
or only few.  Keep in my mind that the primary goal of the tool was to check place title titles for a complete data migration. A minor difference between the legacy place title and the automatic displayed one will be detected. If you had set postal code or and old name for a province and state, and now have more consistency on place names by using place hierarchy, then the pass will return the data.
==Options==
You can .... have three options, available at the bottom :
In addition,
*'''clean''' - remove legacy content for place titles
*'''copy''' - copy old place titles to a new note.
*'''tag''' - assign a tag and mark places
When the {{man label|CheckPlaceTitlesApply}} tool button is clicked, then changes will be made on your selected place objects.The There is also a {{man button|Help}} button to see this page.
