How to Report Wrong Social Media Profiles in Google’s Knowledge Panel

Earlier this year, Google started adding social media profile icons into the Knowledge Graph for local businesses.  Previously, there was a feedback button you could select if the profiles they connected to your business were incorrect.  It looks like Google has changed this recently so that now when you press the “Suggest an Edit” button, you can directly edit the link to the social profile and tell Google what is incorrect about it.
*Tip: If you do this while logged into the account that owns the listing in question, it will help Google verify that you are the owner and that the feedback you’re providing is accurate.
