        If you did the canonical and redirection recently, it will take some time for Google to update the report on HTML improvements. Just sit tight and hold for a couple of weeks.

            I'd say a couple of weeks. You could "force" Google to recrawl the pages by using "crawl -> fetch as googlebot" then type the address and once the fetch is completed, click the "submit to index", that should do it quicker, however, the HTML reports will take a couple of weeks to update.

              It can take some time for GWT to pick up on changes like this.

              As an example Google Webmaster Tools was telling us that there were many thousands of inbound links from a staging domain to our main website.

              We had to make a large change whereby we added a secure password and noindex tag reference to the staging website in question. I would say that the number of links referenced in GWT only decreased after approx 2 months.

              Patience can often be the key - I swear doing nothing can often be more beneficial in SEO, rather than making knee-jerk decisions in a blind panic (very tempting mind!)
