Task 15.7 Sao Tome And Principe: From Plantation Colony To Microstate has 2 authors and 15.7 is an author-sourced task.
From FAQ
What if a book has multiple authors in a task involving author names, initials, or other characteristics (gender, birthplace, etc.)?
The general default rule is that books by a single author must be used.

10.7 Adulthood Is a Myth 112 pages

opps!! I've rarely read graphic novels/comics and so don't really understand what is what. It said graphic novel as MPG so I guess categorized it as that. But it does list MPG comics so I'm guessing that's what I need to look for to determine 100 vs. 200 page minimum for a 5/10 pt task using a graphic novel/comic. Thanks I've adjusted my total

I had just noticed that I swapped a book with my 25.7 task and edited it thinking you hadn't got to it yet. But I'll repost my corrected 25.6 as well so it shows up on the newer feed. Thanks.

Hi Dlmrose, sorry about that! I forgot to do it since it's a reclaim, but I'll remember next time when I unclaim and reclaim. Does this disqualify all of my other posts before and after post 3528? Such as, 3525, 3531, and 3552? Which should all have the correct total-points?
