Sh 2-71 Wrong position

In SkySafari 6 pro, there are two objects associated with Sh 2-71 : one bright nebula and one planetary nebula. Actually, the bright nebula does not exist (to be deleted from the database) and the planetary nebula’s position is wrong. Correct coordinates (epoch 2000) should be : AD 19 01 59 Dec +02 09 18 Reference : - my own observations - Strasbourg ESO catalogue of galactic planetary nebulae

    It is still wrong in SkySafari 7 pro. I wasted 3 hours imaging at their coordinates which are wrong.
